Event or Problem Description
It was reported that during a shoulder pelvis and lip repair, the guide 2.3 inline drill and the obturator 2.3 non-cannulated were first used to enter the joint along to locate the ideal anchor implantation point, and then pulled out the obturator 2.3 non-cannulated.The surgeon held the guide 2.3 inline drill to firmly locate the position.The assistant used the special drill bit drill fluted 2.6mm to reach the depth limit position and implanted the osteoraptor anchor.When one-third of the anchor was implanted, it was found that the anchor split.The anchor was removed.The procedure was completed using a back-up device.There was a delay less than 30 minutes and no further complications were reported.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: h3, h6: the reported device was received for evaluation.A visual evaluation showed the device was returned in original packaging with the batch number of the complaint on the label.The anchor is cracked at the proximal threads but not fractured away.The suture was not returned.The insertion device has no visible defect.Bio debris is present.A review of device records showed there were no indications to suggest that the product did not meet manufacturing specifications upon release for distribution.A complaint history review found no similar reported events.A risk management review found that the reported failure and/or harm was documented appropriately, and there were no indications to suggest the anticipated risk is not adequate.A review of the material specifications found that the storage requirements for the material are specified, and the material must comply with provided percentage composition specifications as measured by ash test.A definitive root cause for the reported issue could not be determined.Factors that could have contributed to the failure anchor deformed include procedural variance, or deviations from established protocols, increasing risks and leading to unintended consequences (inappropriate or excessive force).Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.
