Please note corrections in: b2.The reported event could not be confirmed since the device was not returned for evaluation and no other evidences were provided.More detailed information about the complaint event must be available in order to determine the root cause of the complaint event.But based on the event description which mentions that " further rotator cuff pathology diagnosed" and based on the ifu which mentions that "the population targeted with the anatomic configuration is restricted to patients with an intact or reconstructable rotator cuff, where it is intended to provide increased mobility and stability and to relieve pain.", the probable root cause of this event is probably due to the patient condition.A review of the device history for the reported lot did not indicate any abnormalities.No corrective actions are required at this time.A review of the labeling did not indicate any abnormalities.No indications of material, manufacturing or design related problems were found during the investigation.If the device is returned or if any additional information is provided, the investigation will be reassessed.
