Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Internal complaint reference number: (b)(4).
 
Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, after a left bhr was performed on 11-jun-2007 due to left arthritis, in which a bhr 42mm resurfacing femoral head (reported under 3005975929-2022-00162) and a 50mm acetabular cup were implanted, the patient experienced metallosis.This adverse event was treated with a revision surgery on (b)(6) 2020.Patient's current health status is unknown.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: it was reported that a left hip revision surgery was performed.As of today, the implanted devices, all of which were used in treatment have not been returned for evaluation.Without a definitive batch number, a complete review of the historical complaints data cannot be performed for the acetabular cup and the femoral head.A review of historical complaints data was performed using part numbers and the reported failure modes to evaluate patterns of repeated failures or defects in a timeframe prior 12 months as of the complaint aware date.Other similar complaints have been identified for the part number and the reported failure mode, however, as the device is no longer sold, no action is to be taken.As no device batch numbers were provided for investigation, manufacturing record review, device labelling / ifu review could not be performed.If more information is received, this investigation will be reopened.A risk management review was performed.The alleged failure modes and associated risks have been anticipated within the risk file and the anticipated risk level is still adequate.No further actions are required at this time.A review of historic escalation actions related to the products and similar complaint events was performed.Following the review, prior applicable escalation actions were identified and confirmed to reduce associated risks as far as possible.No further escalation actions required.The available medical documents were reviewed.The clinical information provided, of the metallosis in the pericapsular tissue may be consistent with a reaction to metal debris.However, the source and the root cause cannot be determined with the available documentation.It cannot be concluded that the reported clinical findings are associated with the implant failure.Based on the available information we can confirm the reported complaint, however without further information our investigation remains inconclusive, and a definitive root cause cannot be determined.Specific factors known to contribute to the alleged fault are excessive physical activity levels, unreasonable stress on replacement system, excessive patient weight, trauma to the joint replacement, loosening of components may increase production of wear particles and accelerate damage to the bone.Should the devices or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective and preventative actions is not indicated.
