Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
It was reported that there was a manufacturing defect with the ar-5400-13.The inability of the ar-5400-13 to assemble carries a potential harm of annoyance/dissatisfaction as well as a potential deviation from intended procedure in accordance with plm62349.However, as this was noted to be a manufacturing issue, it would likely be discovered at inspection and would not likely cause or contribute to a serious injury if it were to recur.As a result, the event is not reportable for malfunction.Correction, h1 to n/a
arthrex previously submitted this event as a reportable malfunction out of an abundance of caution.Upon further review and evaluation of associated risk documentation, it has been determined that this event does not meet the criteria of a reportable event under 21 cfr 803.
