Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, during a thr, (2) trial 20 deg 36mm 58-60g center screws broke.The surgery was completed with the same device.No injuries or delays were reported.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the associated devices were returned and evaluated.A visual inspection of the returned devices confirm the screws broke off both devices, rendering the devices inoperable.These devices show signs of significant wear and use.A review of complaint history for the previous 12 months did not reveal similar events for the listed device.At this time, we do not have reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A review of the risk management file revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.Assessment of historical escalated cases concluded that there are no prior actions related to this device and failure mode.As the device broke and it cannot longer fit its purpose, the contribution of the device to the reported event could be corroborated.These devices are reusable instruments that can be exposed to numerous surgeries.Damage from prolonged use, misuse or rough handling are probable causes of the reported event.We recommend that all reusable instruments be routinely inspected for wear and damage and replaced as necessary.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
