Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the device was not returned for evaluation and the reported event could not be confirmed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, without patient specific documentation, the explanted device, and/or adequate materials to fully evaluate the root cause of the complaint, the patient impact beyond that which was reported (dislocation and subsequent revision) could not be determined.If additional clinically relevant materials are later received, then the case may be re-opened for further evaluation.A review of complaint history of the previous 12 months revealed similar events for the listed device, this failure mode will be monitored for future complaints for any necessary corrective actions.A review of the instructions for use documents for total hip systems revealed that dislocation has been identified in warnings and precautions as a result of improper neck selection, positioning, looseness of acetabular or femoral components, extraneous bone, penetration of the femoral prosthesis through the shaft of the femur, fracture of the acetabulum, intrapelvic protrusion of acetabular component, femoral impingement, periarticular calcification, and/or excessive reaming.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.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.Possible causes could include but not limited to traumatic injury, patient anatomy or abnormal loading of limb.The contribution of the device to the reported event could not be corroborated.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Without the return of the actual product involved, our investigation could not proceed.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.
