Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Results of investigation: the product has not been received at the aus site for evaluation and photographs were not provided, so the reported event could not be confirmed.The following investigative actions were performed: complaint history review: the complaint history review identified no similar reported events for this device.No adverse trend was identified.Future complaints for this failure mode will continue to be monitored and investigated as required.Risk management review (device): identified no issues which could have caused or contributed to the reported event.The failure mode was previously identified by the risk management file and the anticipated risk level is acceptable.Capa/nc/pra/hhe/field action review: identified no previous events or issues which could have caused or contributed to the reported event.Assessment of historical escalated cases concluded that there are no prior actions related to this device and failure mode.Device labeling/ifu review: identified no issues which could have caused or contributed to the reported event.This review determined that the device met labeling requirements upon release for distribution.Product prints/specifications/procedure review: identified no issues which could have caused or contributed to the reported event.This review determined that the device met product specifications upon release for distribution.The complaint alleges no injury to the patient nor a delay during surgery.It was determined that the device likely contributed to the reported event as the most probable cause of the failure was wear and damage due to normal use.The rss humeral reamer guide body is a reusable instrument expected to be used across multiple surgeries.Its intended use is to guide the reaming of the proximal humerus during bone preparation.The definitive stem reamer guide body is specifically used when converting a patient from an anatomic shoulder to a reverse shoulder.The guide body features a plastic collar which fits over and protects the existing stem taper during the reaming.The guide body is impacted in place to secure the plastic collar over the existing stem taper.Therefore, the plastic collar of the device may fail after prolonged use or if subjected to excessive force, such as during impaction or reaming.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated as no non-conformances nor manufacturing deficiencies were identified and the risk level is acceptable.If additional information is later received, the complaint may be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint, though future complaints will be monitored and investigated as required.This investigation can be closed.
