Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, after a left hip tha second revision had been performed on (b)(6)2020 to exchange femoral head and liner due to an unknown diagnosis, the patient sustained left hip pain with ambulation difficulties and was taken to the operating room due the concern of a prosthetic joint infection.A two-stage third revision surgery was conducted on (b)(6) 2020 (first stage) and on (b)(6) 2020 (second stage) to treat these symptoms.During the first procedure, an osteotomy was required to remove the femoral component and the fluid from the hip joint was sampled and cultured.An extensive saline lavage containing bacitracin and polymyxin was performed inside the intramedullary canal.The acetabular cup was also removed with a subsequent saline and antibiotic irrigation.A redapt stem was implanted and coated with antibiotic cement as no pre-made articulating spacer was available.Two additional bags of antibiotic cement were mixed to place the 28 mm +0 femoral head to make a ¿custom made¿ unipolar head that was attached to the femoral component.Cerclage cables were used to secure the femoral osteotomy fragment.The patient was awakened and transported to the recovery room in stable condition.Once the patient completed his antibiotic regimen and the cultures performed on (b)(6) 2020 demonstrated no growth, the patient underwent the second stage of the 3rd revision on (b)(6) 2020.During this procedure, a new 50 mm cup and a 240mm femoral stem were implanted and as the prior osteotomy had not healed the cerclage cables were left in situ around the femur.The patient was taken to the recovery room in stable condition.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the devices were not returned for evaluation; therefore, devices analysis could not be performed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, although a prosthetic joint infection and subsequent 2-stage revision was reported the clinical root cause of the infection cannot be confirmed; however, the reported prosthetic joint infection is highly likely of an exogenous nature.There is no indication the reported infection and subsequent revision were associated with a mal performance of the implant.It is noted stage i of the revision was completed with a custom antibiotic spacer using the redapt system.The patient impact beyond the infection and 2-stage revision cannot be determined with the limited information provided.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 total hip systems revealed that infection, both early, post-operative superficial and early, post-operative deep wound infection and late periprosthetic infection has been identified has been identified as potential complications associated with total hip arthroplasty surgery, primary or revision.A review of the instructions for use for the polar stem states infection as a ¿potential adverse device effect¿ in combination with the implantation of a hip prosthesis.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.A review of the sterilization records revealed the batches were sterilized within normal parameters.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 loss of sterility during procedure, post-operative healing issue, injury, patient condition and/or medical history.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.
