H10: after further assessment of the information gathered by the manufacturer, it was identified that this event should be re-evaluated for mdr reporting.The original information stated that during thr surgery, the silver locking washer sprung of one (1) or3o dual mobility trial liner 40/52 was apart, broken.However, after further clarification and information received, it was determined that the issue does not meet the criteria to be reportable, since it happened during handling activities external to the patient and therefore, there was no reportable malfunction.Moreover, if the device malfunction were to recur, it would not be likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury.
