Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The devices were not returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.Based on the information provided, the unsatisfactory experience could be confirmed.The clinical/medical investigation concluded that, based on the limited information provided in the study documentation, there were no clinical factors found which would have definitively contributed to the possible lateral compartment meniscal tear and a malperformance of the right j-uni components is not supported.The patient impact beyond that which was reported in the study and adverse event forms cannot be determined.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 knee systems revealed in warnings and precautions, postoperative section that use extreme care in patient handling is needed and postoperative patient care and directions and warnings to patients by physicians are extremely important.Protected weight bearing with external support is recommended for a period of time to allow healing.Normal daily activity may be resumed at the physician¿s direction.Patients should be directed to seek medical opinion before entering potentially adverse environments that could affect the performance of the implant.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.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, joint tightness, patient condition or postoperative care.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.
