H6, investigation-based on review of all available information, there is no evidence to suggest that the reported event is related to any design issues.The cause of the patient pain and subsequent revision cannot be conclusively determined; however, it is most likely related to the patient¿s underlying condition as associated with the interaction between the implanted device and the patient due to patient illness, unique anatomy, or other condition that impacts the performance of the device.These devices are used for treatment not diagnosis.
