Event or Problem Description
On 08/26/2025, a facility representative reported via (b)(4) that a cold-welded jig of an 0826-000 impactor pad and 1268-100 130-degree targeting arm broke outside of the patient during a troch nail procedure.No patient was affected.The procedure was completed as normal, and the impactor was taken off at the end.Additional information received on 9/8/2025 from sales rep: it was reported that the break occurred outside of the patient.No fragments were produced.This occurred during a troch nail procedure and was completed as normal as the impactor was just taken off at the end.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information: d9, g3, h3, h6.The complaint allegation was confirmed.One unpackaged 1268-100, batch number 210929, was received for evaluation.Visual evaluation: the inspection revealed that the threaded connector from batch 1268-100 (lot 210929) was cold-welded to part 0826-000, batch 211082.A hole was left where the connector had been positioned.Functional testing: attempted functional testing could not be completed due to the cold-welded threads between part 1268-100 (batch 210929) and part 0826-000 (batch 211082).The most likely reason for the reported failure is the wear and tear damage incurred over repeated usage.The device was manufactured in 2021.
