Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information: g3, h3, h6.Complaint allegation is not confirmed.Based on the information provided which may include the device (if available and returned), pictures, videos, event description, and any additional information from the field, arthrex was able to conclude a most likely cause.Per dfu-0054-eo g.Precautions 6.Suturetak and fibertak suture anchors only: anchors loaded on flexible drivers: the drill guide tip must remain in contact with the bone surface during the drilling and implant impaction steps of the procedure.Failure to do so may result in difficulty seating the implant to its intended depth.Avoid excessive impaction during anchor insertion as this could lead to inserter damage and/or breakage.If insertion resistance is encountered, do not impact harder.Replace the implant and repeat the drilling/insertion process.The method of bone preparation and the quality of the bone encountered were not specified.The most likely cause of the reported failure can be attributed to user error of the device due to improper bone preparation, misalignment insertion, and/or prying/leveraging of the device during insertion.
