Updated fields: d4, d10, g2, g4, g7, h2, h3, h4, h6, h10 udi #: (b)(4) dhr - there is no indication that the production process may have contributed to this complaint.Failure analysis - complaint sample was received with 4 additional packs of patties for the same lot.All returned patties were pull tested per internal procedure and found to be acceptable.801407 patties have a minimum pull test value of 2 lbs and an alert of 3 lbs.The lowest recorded pull test was 4.0 lbs.The root cause of what led to the invalid breaking off is undetermined and can be attributed to user error.Between 05nov2019 and 30jun2020, approximately 2,200 mdrs submitted electronically by integra lifesciences via trackwise, integra's complaint handling system, were not received by cdrh due to a computer system issue.Within this time period, an error with integra's middleware, which facilitates communications between trackwise and the fda system, caused the complaint records to close and indicate we had received an acknowledgement 3 from the fda when we had not.Integra interpreted the acknowledgement as a successful submission; however, subsequent investigation revealed the acknowledgement 3 received was from our middleware and not from the fda (these acknowledgements have been retained as part of the documentation of the mdr).The malfunction was related to the relocation of the trackwise application to a new data center during the transition of integra's corporate headquarters from plainsboro, nj to princeton, nj.Previously, integra had been successfully receiving acknowledgements 1, 2, and 3 from the fda, and our records reflect these acknowledgements, including the date and time stamps.Capa pr 229048 and nc 20-011 have been opened by integra to further investigate the nonconformance and develop a corrective action plan.The middleware error has been corrected, and integra has filed mdrs since the correction and verified that the appropriate acknowledgements have been received from the fda.Integra is resubmitting all impacted mdr reports for the time period 05nov2019 through 30jun2020.Integra lifesciences contacted (b)(4) office of product evaluation and quality on july 8-9, 2020 to report these issues regarding mdr reports.
