Manufacturer Narrative
|
The investigation results point out that the mguide was designed according to specifications based on the clinical data provided by the customer.Design was approved by customer.However some design deviations were noticed for implant position #35 (tube touching the bone in planning proposal; tube stick out with small surrounding resin designed), that in combination with possibly small amount of glue added during gluing operation could lead to tube loosening with applying lateral forces during the surgery.Ifu say that such forces need be be avoided.In this case, these lateral forces during surgery resulted in a crack in the resin of the mguide followed by the loosening of the cemented sleeve.From a clinical perspective patient harm in this case is very limited: injured tissue required recovery, that was performed by clinician immediately after event occurrence.New implant placement surgery will be planned after recovery with new mguide for position #35 only.This event is reportable per 21 cfr part 803.
