Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Internal complaint reference: case-(b)(4).This complaint was opened by smith+nephew to document a patient complication related to a product problem with a smith+nephew device.The reported issue(s) relate to known inherent device and/or procedural risks that are appropriately documented in our risk files.Smith+nephew will continue to monitor trends in accordance with our post-market surveillance process and take necessary action as required if anticipated severity and/or occurrence rates are exceeded.Smith+nephew has no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any specifications at the time of manufacture.Based on our review of all currently available information, we are unable to identify a definitive root cause.However, as the use of our product cannot be excluded as a potential cause or contributory factor to the reported issue, we are submitting this report in accordance with applicable regulations.If additional investigative findings or information becomes available that alters the conclusions of this report, a follow-up report will be submitted as required.
Event or Problem Description
It was reported that, during a tka surgery, it was noticed that the blocks of one (1) vis adpt guide lgnp kit did not fit appropriately; cuts were off.The procedure was resumed, without any delay, with a change to instrumented technique and using a 15mm poly instead of 9-10mm.No further complications were reported.The patient current status of health is unknown.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The device was not returned for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be performed.A review of the production order did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.However, a review made by the quality engineering team revealed that the tibia segmentation was incorrect.The tibia was over segmented by the engineer on the anterior and proximal sides.This led to incorrect block fit.Since this is a patient-specific device individually designed and tailor-made for a specific customer, the dimensional non-conformity observed is therefore isolated to this single-use product on complaint.A review of complaint history for the part number over the past 12 months did not reveal similar events for the listed device.As visionaire devices are custom made, a review of the complaint history for this batch is not applicable.A review of the risk management file revealed this failure mode was previously identified.The anticipated risk level is still adequate.A historical review concluded that there are no prior actions related to this product and event.According to the inspection drawing, final inspection includes verifying part number, size and implant type.At this time, we do have evidence to conclude that the product failed to meet specifications at the time of manufacture.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should the device or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
