The reported device, used in treatment, was not returned to the designated complaint unit for independent evaluation, thus visual inspection and functional testing could not be performed.A review of the device history records showed there were no indications to suggest that the lot did not meet manufacturing specification or would not be able to perform as intended.A complaint history review concluded this was an isolated event.A review of risk management files found that the reported failure was documented appropriately.A review of the complaint revealed there were no patient injuries reported and no apparent patient impact based on the details provided.Therefore, no further medical assessment is warranted.A review of the instructions for use found the following warnings regarding anchor failures: o bone quality must be adequate to allow proper placement of suture anchor.O use of excessive force during insertion can cause failure of the suture anchor or insertion device.A relationship, if any, between the subject device and the reported event could not be determined.If the product associated with this event is returned at a future date, this evaluation will be reopened for investigation.
