Additional information: d9, g3, h3, h6.Complaint allegation is not confirmed due to the reported failure being unable to be replicated due to not receiving all components.One unpackaged ar-1938ps-1 suture anchor, peek suture tak was received for investigation.Visual evaluation of the returned device noted that the sutures and anchor were no longer assembled to the driver and not returned for investigation.Functional testing was not performed due to the missing components.The most likely cause for the reported failure can be attributed to improper suture orientation.The surgical technique for knee capsule repair outlines the proper steps in steps 6 through 11 on pages 3 & 4.
