Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary: during an attune, total knee replacement, the surgeon made an attempt to place the final insert in the patient and was unable to get the insert to engage in the fix bearing tray.The insert was then removed and a new insert was successfully placed in the total knee.The product was returned to j&j medtech orthopaedics for evaluation.Visual inspection revealed the locking tab of the atune cr rt ms ins sz 8 5 deformed.Additionally, the devices presents scratches most likely caused by the extraction attempts.The observed damage can be consistent with a component failure caused by excessive forces applied over material, like assembling the device in an off-axis position during surgical process.Properly handling and¿attention to the approved use of the device diminishes the risk of failure.As per attune¿ revision knee system fixed bearing surgical technique rev.D, on page 213, the next steps need to be follow for a proper implantation of the attune ps/cr insert with the revision fixed bearing tibial base: "angle the tibial insert posteriorly and slide the posterior tabs into the posterior undercuts of the tibial base.The fixed bearing tibial insert is impacted into place on the tibial base, using the fixed bearing insert impactor.Position the impactor at approximately 60 degrees on the insert so that the notch rests on the anterior edge of the center of the insert.Use a mallet to strike the fixed bearing insert impactor".A dimensional inspection was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.A functional test was not performed since mating device was not returned for evaluation.However, based on the observed damage it is reasonable to conclude that the device was difficult to assembled.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the atune cr rt ms ins sz 8 5 would have contributed to the complained device issue.Based on the investigation findings, 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 j&j medtech orthopaedics 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: a search of the j&j medtech orthopaedics nonconformance (nc) quality system found no nc¿s associated with this product/lot combination.
