Event or Problem Description
It was reported that a patient developed a deep vein thrombus (dvt) requiring medical intervention ten days post implantation.All components remain implanted.Attempts to obtain additional information have been made; however, no more information is available.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.Procedural related complications are influenced by the type of surgery, patients pre-existing comorbidities, and perioperative management.Deep vein thrombosis (blood clot), or dvt, occurs when a blood clot forms in one of the deep veins of the body.This can happen if a vein becomes damaged or if the blood flow within a vein slows down or stops.Total joint patients are typically placed on medication post-operatively to prevent dvt formation.Even with the administration of preventive medication, dvts can still develop.As the complaint indicated, a post-operative complication occurred, and medical intervention was required for treatment.The patient was also obese and a smoker which both increase risk for dvt.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
