Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.The following sections were updated/corrected updated: g3; h2; h3; h6 visual evaluation of the returned product identified that the outer carton was not returned and the outer sterile packaging was open.The inner pouch has multiple crease marks but no hole was visible and there is air inside.The complaint has been confirmed by visual evaluation.Review of the device history records identified no deviations or anomalies during manufacturing related to the reported event.The reported event did not occur in an operating room or as part of a medical procedure; medical records are not available for review the product was likely conforming when it left zimmer biomet control.Corrective action has been initiated to further investigate the definitive root cause of the lack of vacuum, and confirmed breaches in the packaging are present which have resulted in the pouch losing its vacuum.The breaches in the packaging are likely to have occurred as a result of the porous coating surface rubbing against the pouch during the transit process.The root cause of the issue is transit damage.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
