Manufacturer Narrative

The device was returned and a visual inspection conducted.There was some damage to the peek which could be attributed to the removal of the device but there was nothing to indicate there were any issues with the device that could have contributed to it being placed off midline.No specific measurable evaluations were carried out other than a complete dhr review.Review of sterilization and manufacturing records indicate no abnormalities or non-conformances that would have contributed to this issue.All product accepted to stock were evaluated to be within specifications with all inspection and certification present and correct.Review of risk documentation shows that the rates are within those evaluated for probability of occurence and fully mitigated within the corresponding risk assessment fmeas.As of 2 june 2017, we are awaiting further information regarding the progress of the patient and confirmation that the medical intervention was to preclude a potential serious injury to complete the complaint investigation.
