Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H3, h6: the device was not returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, with the limited information provided the clinical root cause of the reported dislocations cannot be confirmed.It cannot be concluded the dislocations were associated with a mal performance of the implant.The patient was reported to be doing fine.No further clinical assessment is warranted at this time.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 based on the historical data revealed similar a event for the listed batch, this failure mode will be monitored for future complaints for any necessary corrective actions.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 file 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 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 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 device 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.
