Getinge became aware of an issue with 143302b0 yuno 2 eu with autodrive.It was stated that there was a problem related to the operating table yuno 2.In four cases a fracture of the femur occurred following a total hip prosthesis surgery.We decided to report the issue due to serious injuries.Based on information provided by subject matter expert (sme) who was present at the operation, the problem was solved by the changed positioning of the counter traction bar in the "3-hole" cfk plate.It was established that when the event occurred, the 143302b0 yuno 2 eu with autodrive met its specification.The provided information indicates that upon the event occurrence, the device was being used for patient treatment.When the event occurred, the 143302b0 yuno 2 eu with autodrive was directly involved with the reported incident.There was no similar complaints related to this issue.Comparing the number of claimed devices to the number of sold devices worldwide, we established that the failure ratio is very low.Following evaluation by the sme who was present at the operation, the placement of the counter extension plate in the central position, causes the femur to rise or block with the corner of the plate and when the stem is introduced weakens the trochanter minor.This indicates user error related to incorrect placement of the counter extension plate.Therefore, the product in question is not defective.The user was informed about improper use.In the ifu (ifu143302xyen04, page 87) the user is informed how to correctly mount extension plate.We believe the related devices are performing correctly in the market.We also believe that if the manufacturer recommendation would have been followed the incident would have been avoided.Getinge shall continue to monitor for any further events of this nature and do not propose any action at this time.The correction of b5 describe event or problem, d3 manufacturer, h4 manufacture date, h6 medical device - problem code, h8 usage of the device fields deems required.This is based on the additional information that has been received and internal evaluation.Previous b5 describe event or problem: the following was reported to us.There was a problem related to the operating table yuno 2.In four cases a fracture of the femur occurred following a total hip prosthesis surgery.The event date of three cases are july 31th 2021, november 8th 2021 and november 26th 2021.The event date of the 4th case is unknown.The extension plate 143366ac "carbon-fibre extension plate 3" was used in theses surgeries.Further information concerning how these incidents happened and in which relation they are to the operating table were requested, but not yet provided.Manufacturer reference# 559226 corrected b5 describe event or problem.On 30th november, 2021 getinge became aware of an issue with one of our mobile tables yuno 2 (143302b0).The following was reported to us.There was a problem related to the operating table yuno 2.In four cases a fracture of the femur occurred following a total hip prosthesis surgery.The event dates of three cases are july 31th 2021, november 8th 2021 and november 26th 2021.The event date of the 4th case is unknown.The extension plate 143366ac "carbon-fibre extension plate 3" was used in these surgeries.Previous d3 manufacturer (b)(4).Corrected d3 manufacturer (b)(4).Previous h4 manufacture date 01/15/2021.Corrected h4 manufacture date 01/18/2021.Previous h6 medical device - problem code.Insufficient information|||3190.Corrected h6 medical device - problem code.Use of device problem|improper or incorrect procedure or method||2017.Previous h8 usage of the device unknown.Corrected h8 usage of the device reuse.
