H3, h6: the devices were not returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.The photographs were reviewed and did not reveal the stated failure mode the clinical/medical investigation concluded that, the provided photos were reviewed but do not indicate any clinical factors which would have contributed to the reported dislocation or liner disassociation.The patient impact beyond the reported revision cannot be determined; however, it is reported the patient is in good health.A review of the production order did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.For or3o dm xlpe insert 28/44 and or3o dual mobility liner 44/56, a review of complaint history for the part number over the past 12 months and for the batch number based on historical data of the device did not reveal similar events for the listed device.For oxinium fem hd 12/14 28mm +0, a review of complaint history revealed similar events for the listed device over the previous 12 months, but no similar events for the batch based on the historical data, this failure mode will be monitored for future complaints for any necessary corrective actions.For or3o dm xlpe insert 28/44 and or3o dual mobility liner 44/56, a review of the instructions for use documents for or3o¿ dual mobility system revealed in postoperative precautions that patients should be warned against unassisted activity, particularly use of toilet facilities and other activities requiring excessive motion of the hip, as they may result in subluxation or dislocation.For oxinium fem hd 12/14 28mm +0, a review of the instructions for use documents for total hip systems revealed that dislocation has been identified in warnings and precautions, that may result from improper selection of the neck length and cup, stem positioning, muscle looseness and/or malpositioning of components.A review of the risk management files revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.For or3o dm xlpe insert 28/44 and oxinium fem hd 12/14 28mm +0, a historical review concluded that there are no prior actions related to this product and event.For or3o dual mobility liner 44/56, a historical review concluded that a similar event was previously identified.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the products failed to meet any specifications at the time of manufacture.Factors that could contribute to the reported event include surgical technique, size selected, traumatic injury, patient anatomy, postoperative care 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.
