Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Checking the sterilization charts of the involved lot number (2426083 - ster.2400220) no pre-existing anomalies were identified, therefore we can state that the device was regularly sterilized before being placed on the market.The company has not recorded any other complaint due to infection on ster.Lot 2400220.The following information was requested to the complaint source but never provided: - pre-operative and post-operative x-rays.- patient data (gender, bmi, relevant pathologies).- pathogen responsible for the infection/results of the microbiological tests - code and lot numbers of the other devices involved.With the few available information, no further investigation is possible, other than the check of the device history records of the femoral stem involved, which confirmed the absence of pre-existing anomalies.This event is therefore classified as not product related.Pms data: according to company's pms data, the revision rate of minima-s stems (family codes 4503.21.Xxx, 4504.21.Xxx) due to infection is lower than 0,01%.No corrective action is needed following this complaint.The company will continue monitoring the market to promptly detect any further similar event.
