Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, during a tka surgery, the package of a oscillating blade 1.27mm nrw powerpro was broken.This happened before use in patient.Surgery was performed, without any delay, with the same device.Patient was not harmed as consequence of this problem.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The associated device was returned and evaluated.The contribution of the device to the reported event could not be corroborated.A visual inspection of the returned device confirmed the stated failure mode.The sealed package of the device was unsealed.It is uncertain how that event occurred as the surgery was stated to be performed without delay with the same device.This is a single-use device and should be disposed of after its first use.A review of complaint history did not reveal similar events for the listed device.A review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.At this time, we do not have reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A review of the risk management file revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.Assessment of historical escalated cases concluded that there are no prior actions related to this device and failure mode.Some potential probable causes for this event could include packaging damage in transit or storage.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
