Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary : complaint because of broken stem lps porous stem 10.5x100mm str (pictures attached, stem send for analyze).(b)(6) 2024., changed the product with new one.Hcp wants information what is happened with stem? the product was not returned to depuy synthes, however photos were provided for review.The x-ray investigation revealed a fracture on the distal portion of lps porous stem 10.5x100mm str, near the neck of the stem.The mode of failure of the device is multi-factorial and consideration must be given to all other potential influences such as surgical process, patient variables (e.G.Activity level and use), anatomical considerations and patient changes over time.Any conclusions from the investigational input provided have to be placed into context with all other relevant factors.As the device was not returned, an as-received condition could not be assessed, and a dimensional inspection and document/specification review were not completed.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the lps porous stem 10.5x100mm str would contribute 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 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 : a manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device 618552 number, and no non-conformances nor manufacturing irregularities were identified.

Product complaint #(b)(4).Investigation summary: complaint because of broken stem lps porous stem 10.5x100mm str (pictures attached, stem send for analyze).(b)(6) 2024., changed the product with new one.Hcp wants information what has happened with stem? the product was returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.Visual inspection of the returned device found the distal portion of lps porous stem 10.5x100mm str fractured, near the neck of the device.A meeting with the depuy warsaw cpd (commercialized product development) conclude that the damage consists in a high cycle and low stress fatigue over the fractured area.With the information provided is not possible to determine a potential cause at this moment.The mode of failure of the device is multi-factorial and consideration must be given to all other potential influences such as surgical process, patient variables (e.G.Activity level and use), anatomical considerations and patient changes over time.Any conclusions from the investigational input provided have to be placed into context with all other relevant factors.A dimensional inspection was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.A functional test was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.A manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device 618552 number, and no non-conformances nor manufacturing irregularities were identified.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the lps porous stem 10.5x100mm str would contribute 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 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: a manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device 618552 number, and no non-conformances nor manufacturing irregularities were identified.Device history review: a manufacturing record evaluation was performed for the finished device 618552 number, and no non-conformances nor manufacturing irregularities were identified.
