Section h3, h6: the devices were not returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, per case details, approximately one year post total knee arthroplasty surgery, a clinical study patient underwent a revision due to a lateral dislocation of the right knee joint.Reportedly, the patient has recovered.As of the date of this medical investigation, the requested clinical documentation including which devices were explanted or replaced has not been provided; therefore, there were no clinical factors found which would have definitively contributed to the event.The patient impact beyond the reported is not anticipated as it has been communicated, the patient¿s current health status is ¿recovered/resolved,¿ with ¿no remedial therapy¿ received.Therefore, no further clinical/medical assessment can be rendered.A review of the production orders did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.A review of complaint history for the part numbers over the past 12 months and for the batch numbers based on historical data of the device did not reveal similar events for the listed devices.A review of the instructions for use documents for knee systems revealed in possible adverse effects that dislocation and subluxation can result from trauma, improper implant selection, improper implant positioning, improper fixation, and/or migration of the components.Muscle and fibrous tissue laxity can also contribute to these conditions.A review of the risk management files revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.A historical review concluded that there are no prior actions related to these products and event.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the products failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.With the results of this investigation the root cause of this event could not be determined.Factors that could contribute to the reported event include traumatic injury, patient anatomy, and/or or abnormal loading of limb.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should the devices or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.B5: describe event or problem and h6: medical device problem code.
