Additional Manufacturer Narrative
It was reported that revision surgery was performed due to dislocation.The device intended for use during treatment was not returned for investigation nor was a batch number communicated.Therefore an appropriate investigation could not be conducted and the reported issue not independently be confirmed.The ifu (lit.No.12.23 ed 05/16) lists dislocation as a known possible side effect resulting from a hip arthroplasty.A review of the risk management documentation verifies the failure mode and severity of the reported issue.Based on available information the root cause cannot be determined.The need for corrective action is not indicated.Nevertheless, smith + nephew will continue to monitor this device for similar issues.The complaint will be reopened should the complained device or additional information be received.
