Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information added: d4 (expiration date), h4, h6 (component code, type of investigation, investigation findings, investigation conclusions).Results of investigation: the device was not returned for evaluation but the pictures were provided and according to the clinical/medical evaluation the undated/unidentified x-ray photocopy image shows a fracture of the femur in the area of the femoral neck.Based on the information provided, the root cause of the periprosthetic fracture and subsequent revision was the reported fall.The patient impact beyond the reported fall, fracture, and revision procedure could not be determined, as the patient status was unknown.No further medical assessment could be rendered at this time.Should any additional relevant medical information be provided, this case would be re-assessed.A review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.A review of complaint history for the part number over the past 12 months and for the batch number based on historical data of the device did not reveal similar events for the listed device.A review of the instructions for use documents for intramedullary nail system revealed that intramedullary nails are not substitutes for skeletal healing, and proper follow-up care is essential to safe and effective use has been identified as a postoperative care.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.Factors and/or potential causes that could contribute to the reported event include excessive forces applied to implant and traumatic injury.The contribution of the device to the reported event could not be corroborated, since we cannot confirm that the device caused the periprosthetic fracture.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.Corrected data: h6(health effect - clinical code & health effect - impact code).
