Product complaint #(b)(4).Investigation summary: broken attune revision modular drill stop.The mechanism to allow it to slide over a reamer is faulty.The product was returned to j&j medtech orthopaedics for evaluation.Visual inspection of the returned device found that the attune revision modular stop shows signs of heavy worn all over the surface consistent with the time of service and usage of the device.A functional test was not performed due to the mating component not being returned, however the spring mechanism show difficulties having to apply more force than required to triggered its function.The reported unable to assemble allegation can be confirmed due to the observed condition of the spring.The observed condition was identified as an end-of-life indicator, damage consistent with repeated use and servicing.The lifecycle requirements of the device are event related and depend on the use and inspection of the device in clinical practice.As the device can be damaged on the first or 100th use, the device must be properly inspected prior to each surgical use.Refer to the device/country specific ifu for information related to end of life, reprocessing instructions, and inspection procedures.A dimensional inspection was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the attune revision modular stop would have contributed to the complained issue.Based on the investigation findings, it has been determined that no corrective and/or preventative action is required.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: the product investigation found no evidence suspecting an error in the manufacturing or material that would be a contributing factor in the reported allegation(s).A manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not performed.
