Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary: according to the information received: cr femoral trial broke upon impaction.No delays or adverse event.The product was not returned to depuy synthes, however photos were provided for review.See (b)(4) - (b)(6) hospital).The photo investigation revealed that attune cr fem trial sz 5 rt had a broken condyle.Therefore, the complaint is confirmed.The fracture surface is consistent with overload due to a combination of heavy impaction and the trial fitting too tight over the posterior/anterior aspect of the resected femur bone forcing the curved features of the femoral trial to open.The combination of heavy impaction and possible discrepancies in the resection depth between the femur and the trial suggest unintended user error.Furthermore, per the attune surgical technique (dsus/jrc/0316/1437 rev.K) it is cautioned when extracting the trial, rocking the trial medio-laterally may cause condylar fracture.Such rocking should be avoided.Since the device was not returned, a dimensional inspection cannot be performed.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the attune cr fem trial sz 5 rt would contribute to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, an unintended use error cause is established 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 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.
