Additional Manufacturer Narrative

During the investigation process a review of the sterile certifications were reviewed and found to be conforming with no applicable deviations.Devices were verified to have gone through acceptable sterilization process following iso/aami/astm & eu published guidelines.There are multiple factors that may contribute to an infection that are outside the control of zimmer biomet, such as external factors, hospital/surgical environment, provider related risk factors, and/or patient comorbidities/risk factors.As there are no indications of product or process issues identified affecting implant safety or effectiveness, the root cause of the reported event was determined to be unrelated to the implanted zimmer biomet device.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
