Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary: it was reported that dm liner trial cracked.Surgical delay unknown.The product was returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.The depuy synthes team conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual inspection of the returned sample revealed that the pinnacle dm liner trial 54_47 was found cracked from the outer perimeter of the liner, no other issues were observed.Potential cause can be attributed to unintended use error by use of excessive force, it is reasonable to conclude that during the process of placing the liner trial in the cup and while tightening the screw with the cup, damage may have been caused.A dimensional inspection was not performed as it is not applicable to the complaint condition.A functional test was unable to be performed due to post manufacturing damage.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the pinnacle dm liner trial 54_47 would contribute to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, the potential cause is traced to unintended use error and it has been determined that no corrective and/or preventative action is proposed.There is no indication that a design or manufacturing issue has caused the reported complaint condition.As part of depuy synthes quality process, all devices are manufactured, inspected, and released to approved specifications.Additional monitoring for any potential safety signals will be conducted through complaint trending and other post-market safety surveillance activities.Device history lot: the product investigation found no evidence suspecting an error in the manufacturing or material that would be a contributing factor in the reported allegation(s).A manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not performed.
