Additional Manufacturer Narrative

No fault could be found with the returned reference sensor 5 unit.The reference sensor powered up and successfully passed horizontal, vertical, and side calibration.The sensor also successfully completed multiple simulated maneuvers during testing.The reference sensor was found to function as design.It is suspected that the user experienced inverse angle measurements by selecting the incorrect hip (i.E.Left/right) on the navigation unit during back table set up.By selecting the incorrect hip during set up, when the user has correctly performed the registrations and is measuring cup angle, the cup angle will show -40 degrees instead of 40 degrees as expected.There is no navigational log available for review, so this suspicion cannot be confirmed.A review of the device history record (dhr) was conducted.The device passed all manufacturing specifications prior to release.Orthalign will continue to monitor this issue and take action if or when alert limits are exceeded.
