Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: given the nature of the alleged incident, the devices could not be returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.The clinical/medical investigation stated that without the patient specific documentation, no contributing clinical factors could be definitively concluded.The patient impact beyond the reported instability and subsequent revision cannot be determined.No further medical assessment could be rendered at this time.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 femoral component and insert's 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 complaint history revealed a similar event for the baseplate's part number over the previous 12 months, but no similar events for the batch based on the historical data.A review of complaint history revealed similar events for the stems and coupler's part numbers over the previous 12 months, but no similar events for the batches based on the historical data, this failure mode will be monitored for future complaints for any necessary corrective actions.A review of the instructions for use documents for knee systems revealed that postoperative patient care and directions and warnings to patients by physicians are extremely important.Protected weight bearing with external support is recommended for a period of time to allow healing.Normal daily activity may be resumed at the physician's direction.Also, warnings and precautions states that the patient should be warned of surgical risks, and made aware of possible adverse effects.The patient should be warned that the implant can become damaged as a result of strenuous activity or trauma.Besides, possible adverse effects section states that temporary or permanent nerve damage can result in pain or numbness of the affected limb.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 evidence to conclude that the products failed to meet any specifications at the time of manufacture.Factors that could contribute to the reported event include joint laxity, patient condition or postoperative care.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 for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
