Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary- it was reported that the handles need replaced to match crossback graters.It did not happen in surgery.According to the information received graters are old and dull.Doctor complaining about it and sterile complaints against rusting/warping.The product was returned to j&j medtech orthopaedics for evaluation.Visual analysis of the returned quickset ace grater head found signs of deformation on the cutting edges.Additionally, corrosion patterns were found both inside and outside of the cutting surface.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.Where corrosion/oxidation is identified around the cutting surface of the device, alongside damage consistent with normal wear, this suggests that the passive layer of the metal has been worn down from repeated use (due to normal use damage) allowing for the metallic surface underneath to become susceptible to corrosion/oxidation.A dimensional inspection was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.A functional test was not performed since it was not applicable to the complaint condition.The overall complaint was confirmed as the observed condition of the quickset ace grater head would have contributed to a device issue.Based on the investigation findings, the potential cause is traced to end of life, and 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- a device history record (dhr) review or manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not possible because the date code a0211 provided is not a valid finished goods lot number.H11 additional narrative: corrected: h3.
