Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the devices were not returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, as of the date of this medical investigation, supporting clinical documentation has not been provided; therefore, there were no clinical factors found which would have contributed to the reported sepsis.The patient impact beyond the reported 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.For the shell and the head screws, 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.For the liner, threaded hole cover and femoral head a review of complaint history revealed similar events for the listed devices 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.For the stem, a review of complaint history revealed a similar event 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 the shell, liner, threaded hole cover, femoral head and the head screws, 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 in potential complications associated with total hip arthroplasty surgery, primary or revision section.For the stem, a review of the instructions for use documents 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 that 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, 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.
