Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Section h3, h6: given the nature of the alleged incident, the device could not be returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.However, based on the information provided, the unsatisfactory experience could be confirmed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, per complaint details, approximately two months post left total knee arthroplasty, the patient had a manipulation under anesthesia as adequate range of motion was not achieved due to a diagnosis of ankylosis of the knee.A review of the provided case report forms indicated that the reported event is not related to the study device, but is an anticipated event that is possibly related to the procedure.Per complaint details, the 5 degree flexion contracture was due to a varus deformity that was present before implantation.The patient impact beyond that which has already been reported cannot be determined.However, it has been reported that the patient outcome is resolved.A review of the production order did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.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.A review of the instructions for use documents for knee systems provides complete guidelines of indications, contraindications, warnings and precautions and possible adverse effects that may occur preoperative, during surgery or post operative.A review of the risk management file is not applicable because no information was provided that relates the failure mode to the device.A historical review concluded that there are no prior actions related to this product and event.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any specifications at the time of manufacture.Factors that could contribute to the reported event include procedural/user error and pre-existing patient condition.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.
