Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a 57 yo female patient, initially implanted on (b)(6) 2021, underwent a right knee revision approximately 11 months post the initial implant procedure for pain and a loose femur.She was revised with competitors¿ devices.The patient was last known to be in stable condition following the event.The products are not returning as the customer is retaining the devices.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
After review of additional information received the following sections, have been updated accordingly: h6: the revision reported was likely the result of an insufficient bond between the femoral component and the bone, which led to aseptic (non-infected) femoral loosening and pain.However, this cannot be confirmed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images/pre-revision radiographs were unable to be obtained.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay corrected information.The following sections were corrected: b1, b2, h6 clinical code, device problem code, component code, types of investigation, investigation findings, investigation conclusion codes.Should additional relevant information be obtained, a follow-up mdr will be submitted accordingly.
 
Event or Problem Description
As reported, the patient underwent a right total knee replacement surgery.Approximately 11 months later, the patient complained of pain and was revised due to a loose femur.Because the patient has filed a short form, it appears that they are alleging prosthesis wear of an exactech polyethylene device.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay corrected information.The following sections were corrected: b5, h6, h11.The reported event was unable to be confirmed due to limited information received from the customer.No device was returned for evaluation; further, photographs and/or radiograph images were not provided for review.Operative notes and/or medical records were not provided for review of usage/ technique.A review of complaint history determined that no further action is required as no trends were identified.A definitive root cause was unable to be determined; however, may have resulted from prosthesis wear and femoral loosening or due to inclusion of the polyethylene in the packaging recall.Potential contributions of user and patient-related considerations to the event could not be assessed as the devices were not available for evaluation and images, radiographs, and relevant clinical information were not provided.
