Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Visual inspection: the tip of the driver was deformed and stripped.Device history records were reviewed for this lot and no relevant manufacturing issues were identified.Complaint history records were reviewed for this lot, similar complaints were identified.From the capri surgical technique guide: the life of the instrument depends on the number of times they are used as well as the precautions taken in handling, cleaning and storage.Great care must be taken of the instruments to ensure that they remain in good working order.Instruments should be examined for wear or damage by doctors and staff in operating centers prior to surgery as the device is five years old, wear from its extended use is the likely cause for the event.Misalignment with the mating screw and/or excessive force applied may also cause the tip to deform.
