Manufacturer Narrative

H3, h6: the real intelligence cori, part number rob10024, serial number (b)(6), used for treatment was not returned for evaluation.A relationship between the reported event and the device could not be established.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that a review of the case report forms did not provide any insight into the root cause of the reported arthrofibrosis.No x-ray images or information on the patient compliance with post-operative instructions were provided.Per the crf the reported issue has been documented as resolved.Since no further harm is anticipated, no further clinical/medical assessment is warranted at this time.A complaint history review for similar reported/confirmed complaints has identified prior events.A review of manufacturing records indicate the device met all specifications upon release into distribution.As with any surgical procedure, there is risk involved.Potential complications accompanying surgery may occur, including: allergic reaction (anaphylactic and minor), infection, mild to serious physical injury, localized static shock, delay in the operation, surgical site nerve injury, vascular injuries of the lower extremity, soft tissue damage, major bone gouging at the surgical site, bone fracture, immature implant failure, unstable knee joint, limited or restricted knee range of motion, major blunt impact injury, unintended laceration/puncture wound, and osteonecrosis.The failure mode and associated risk have been anticipated within the risk file.The risk level is still adequate.Although the reported problem was not confirmed through a visual or functional evaluation, no reasonable contributing factors could be identified based on the received complaint information.Based on the investigation, the need for a corrective action is not recommended or required at this time.Should any additional information be received the complaint will be reopened.The failure mode will continue to be closely monitored through complaint investigation and trended through post market surveillance activities.

The real intelligence cori, part number rob10024, sn000156, intended for use in treatment was returned for evaluation.A relationship between the reported event and the device could not be established.Nothing was identified visually that contributed to the reported problem.A functional evaluation was performed, and the reported problem was not confirmed, the cori console functioned as intended.A kpc test, case, and calibration were all completed without error.The software files were downloaded from the device and provided for investigation.The log files do not indicate any system or software issue related to the reported complaint.The screenshots were reviewed with clinical account representatives and the reported complaint could not be confirmed.No definitive conclusions could be drawn from the plan, as there did not appear to be any abnormalities.Although the reported problem was not confirmed through a visual or functional evaluation, it was noted that the surgeon could have planned for a looser gap when the knee was in extension and could be a possible contributing factor in the reported arthrofibrosis.A review of manufacturing and service records indicate the device met all specifications upon release into distribution.A complaint history review for similar reported/confirmed complaints found similar events.A historical escalation event review was completed.A review of prior escalation actions found no actions applicable to the scope of the reported complaint.As with any surgical procedure, there is risk involved.Potential complications accompanying surgery may occur, including: allergic reaction (anaphylactic and minor), infection, mild to serious physical injury, localized static shock, delay in the operation, surgical site nerve injury, vascular injuries of the lower extremity, soft tissue damage, major bone gouging at the surgical site, bone fracture, immature implant failure, unstable knee joint, limited or restricted knee range of motion, major blunt impact injury, unintended laceration/puncture wound, and osteonecrosis.The risk review could not be completed as insufficient information was provided that relates the specific failure mode to the device.A review of the case report forms did not provide any insight into the root cause of the reported arthrofibrosis.No x-ray images or information on the patient compliance with post-operative instructions were provided.Per the crf the reported issue has been documented as resolved.Since no further harm is anticipated, no further clinical/medical assessment is warranted at this time.Although no further containment or corrective action is recommended or required at this time, all complaints are monitored through complaint investigation and post market surveillance activities.
