(b)(4), procedural related complications are influenced by the type of surgery, patients pre-existing comorbidities, and perioperative management.Deep vein thrombosis (blood clot), or dvt, occurs when a blood clot forms in one of the deep veins of the body.This can happen if a vein becomes damaged or if the blood flow within a vein slows down or stops.Total joint patients are typically placed on medication post-operatively to prevent dvt formation.Even with the administration of preventive medication, dvts can still develop.As the complaint indicated, a post-operative complication occurred, and medical intervention was required for treatment.Additional associated products & mdrs: 42504606601 femur cemented standard left size 9 lot# 64890211, mdr: 0001822565-2024-00515.42560113514 stem extension straight splined uncemented 14mmdia 135mm lot# 64911523, mdr: 0001822565-2024-00520.42556806605 femoral posterior augment cemented size 9, 9+ 5mm lot# 64911460, mdr: 0001822565-2024-00519.42542007901 tibia fixed cemented left size g lot# 64817981, mdr: 0001822565-2024-00516.42512800912 articular surface fxd bearing constrained condylar knee l 12mm lot# 64709590, mdr: 0001822565-2024-00517.42560007514 stem extension tapered cemented 14mm dia +75mm lot# 64769750, mdr: 0001822565-2024-00518.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
