Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, during a tka procedure, the insert of a lgn cr high flex xlpe sz 3-4 10 mm would not seat into the tibia tray.The procedure was successfully completed without significant delay using a smith+nephew back-up device.No patient injury or other complications were reported.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the device, used in treatment, was returned for evaluation.A visual inspection of the returned insert confirms minor damage to the lock detail, more than likely from attempting to snap into the tibia tray.A dimensional inspection was attempted but the device was too damaged from the attempted insertion to obtain accurate measurements.A review of the complaint history did not reveal additional complaints for the listed batch.A review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.Some potential probable causes for this event could include a fit/ sizing issue or poor insertion technique.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should additional information be received, the complaints will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for these complaints; however we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
