Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that after the cup was installed and the liner was not tightened the first time, the cup was rinsed and checked and then knocked again, but the liner still could not be tightened.Since the patient had severe osteoporosis and did not dare to use too much force, the surgeon found that the cup was sunk in and the liner was still not tightened, so the ceramic liner was used instead.There was a 10 (ten) minute delay to remove the screws and replace the new liner.No adverse events have been reported as a result of the malfunction.Attempts have been made and additional information on the reported event is unavailable at this time.
