Action | DePuy Synthes issued voluntary device correction letter on 11/19/202 via 2-day by Fed Ex, stating reason for recall, health risk and action to take:
This safety notification is advising physicians of the following supplemental information regarding the surgical approach of standard IM nail reaming as referred to in the surgical technique guide.
Open the medullary canal and conduct reaming by following AO reaming techniques for IM nailing and maintain a guide wire entry angle of less than 10 from the axis of the canal.
CAUTION:
If the guide wire entry angle is greater than 10 from the axis of the canal, there is a risk that bowing of the reaming rod will result in:
o Eccentric reaming of the far cortex
o Damage to the reamer head connection, resulting in metal fragments in the canal
NOTE:
" For an antegrade femoral approach, if possible, adduct the limb/hip to facilitate access to entry point. For greater trochanter entry point, target >2cm distal to the lesser trochanter1.
" For an antegrade tibial approach, the knee will need to be flexed to 90-110 for entry site access. Insert the guide wire aiming down the tibial crest, and thus the center of the medullary canal
