Additional Manufacturer Narrative
After further review of additional information received the following sections g3, g6, h2, h3 and h6 have been updated accordingly.(h3) based on historical complaint investigations and the reported event, the fractured humeral liner impactor tip may have been the result of a stress riser introduced during impaction, which led to crack initiation, propagation, and ultimate fracture.Additionally, the device may have experienced material degradation if sterilized beyond the recommended parameters listed in the reprocessing instruction which could have led to the observed failure.The most probable root cause associated with the reported event of ¿broken / non-functional¿ is associated with a partial or full-thickness crack in the device materials.Section d9: device available for evaluation.
