Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the reported device was not returned to the designated complaint unit for independent evaluation, thus visual inspection and functional testing could not be performed.There was no way to determine if the device contributed to the reported event.A complaint history review concluded this was an isolated event.A review of device records showed there were no indications to suggest that the product did not meet manufacturing specification upon release for distribution.The instructions for use was reviewed and found to include conditions of off label use and technique specifics, as well as precautions and warnings related to the use of the device.A risk management review found that the reported failure was documented appropriately, and there were no indications to suggest the anticipated risk is not adequate.According to the report, some of the powder remained inside of the patient.The drill is comprised of medical grade abs, lustran 348, pre-colored or color concentrate, clariant sb02664911 (white), which is not intended for implantation.The patient impact beyond possible corrosion, local irritation/discomfort, and/or migration of the possible retained metal powder cannot be determined.Since there were no other complications reported, no further clinical/medical assessment is warranted at this time.The complaint was not confirmed.Factors that could have contributed to the reported event include an application of unintended inappropriate or excessive force to the device, attempted correction of a damaged device, or an impact event inconsistent with normal use.Please refer to the instructions for use for recommendations on proper use of the device and potential troubleshooting methods to prevent future reoccurrence of the reported event.No containment or corrective actions are recommended at this time.If the product associated with this event is returned at a future date, this investigation will be reopened for evaluation.H11: this report was inadvertently submitted under manufacturer number ¿1643264¿, the correct manufacturer number is ¿1219602.¿.
