Additional Manufacturer Narrative
It was reported that right hip revision surgery was performed.As of today, the implanted devices, all of which were used in treatment have not been returned for evaluation.A review of the historical complaints data for the acetabular cup and the femoral head was performed using batch numbers to evaluate patterns of repeated failures or defects over the lifetime of the product and 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 complaints were identified to involve this batch and for the part number and the reported/related failure mode.This will continue to be monitored for the acetabular cup.However, as the femoral head of this size is no longer sold, no action is to be taken.In the absence of the actual devices, the production records were reviewed for the devices reportedly involved in this incident.All released devices involved met manufacturing specifications upon release for distribution review of the product ifu found adequate warnings and precautions in relation to the alleged failure modes.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 pain and dark/metal stained 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.
