Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: it was reported that a sl-plus/sbg/ipa mia offset adapter 40mm connection mechanism is broken.The offset adapter device, intended for use in treatment, was returned for investigation.Upon visual inspection, the failure mode and the relationship between the reported event and the device was confirmed.The hook came loose and was not connected to the base body anymore.The according connection pin was not returned for investigation.The base body device shows slight signs of usage such as small scratches and dents.Furthermore, the relevant drill hole itself looks properly machined, but signs of wear at the inner side of the drill holes are visible.These signs may origin from a potentially excessive pin removal.The complaint history review was performed for the affected batch in question.No further complaints were found.Moreover, no additional complaints stating a missing pin for the 40mm offset adapter were reported so far.A review of the batch record revealed no deviations from the standard manufacturing process.The occurrence of the reported failure mode is within its expected risk level as per risk management.A review of past corrective actions was performed.No further escalation is required.Furthermore, the two riveting relevant drill diameters of the base body were measured.Both features were measured within specification.Finally, a functional test in the form of a re-riveting of the device with a new pin was performed.The device was tested with the intended gage for riveting check.No deviation was detected and the pin resisted the applied pressure force.There is no indication that the reported device failed to match manufacturing specifications upon release for distribution.Due to the missing pin, it could not be confirmed if the device was riveted at the time of manufacturing.Based on the performed investigations, the probable cause for the pin loosening could not be determined.The detected signs of wear at the inner side of the drill holes from potentially excessive pin removal during reprocessing may have contributed to the reported event.According to document "processing (cleaning, disinfection and sterilization) of instruments from smith & nephew orthopaedics ag" (lit.N°03389-en 1363 v3 11/19), all devices must be inspected and controlled for proper functioning after cleaning/disinfection.To date, no further actions are deemed necessary.Smith and nephew will continue to monitor the device for similar issues.Should additional information become available, this complaint will be reassessed.The returned device will be discarded.
