Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the device, used in treatment, was not returned for evaluation and the reported event could not be confirmed.The clinical medical investigation concluded that this case reports the cutting block broke during impaction.Per email communication, the device broke outside the patient, and none of the pieces fell inside the patient.There was no patient injury or delay, and the procedure was completed with a backup device.Therefore, since no patient harm is alleged, no further clinical assessment is warranted.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A complaint history review found related failures; this failure mode will be monitored for future complaints and assessed for any necessary corrective actions.This device is a reusable instrument that can be exposed to numerous surgeries.Damage from prolonged use, misuse or rough handling are likely probable causes of the reported event.We recommend that all reusable instruments be routinely inspected for wear and damage and replaced as necessary.Without the return of the actual product involved or product information, our investigation could not proceed.Should the device or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
