Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Section h3, h6: the device was not returned for evaluation.However, the event could be confirmed with the findings of our internal quality process.A review of the production order did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.As visionaire devices are custom made devices, a review of the complaint history for this part is not applicable.A review of the risk management file revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.A historical review concluded that there are no prior actions related to this product and event.According to the inspection drawing, part number, size, implant type, hand, recut type, saw blade thickness and part configuration should be verified, besides dimensions should be measured with caliper to ensure print specifications.A review made by the quality engineering team revealed that the engineer performing the alignment task failed to turn off the universal kit expression.Doing this adjusts the pin hole alignment to the recut guide thus the reason for the complaint.The quality team was notified of the issue so this doesn't reoccur.At this time, we do have reason to suspect that the product failed to meet product specifications at the time of manufacture.The root cause of this event was determined to be that the engineer performing the alignment task failed to turn off the universal kit expression.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should the device or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.B5: describe event or problem.
