Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Additional information: g3, h3, h6.Complaint allegation is confirmed by the attached picture, which shows the base of the eyelet broken off and detached from the distal end of the shaft.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.The method of bone preparation and the quality of the bone encountered were not specified.Per dfu-0087-eo rev 3 - g precautions - 3.Make sure to use the recommended drill bit or punch to create the bone socket.4.Pushlock and swivelock suture anchors only: during anchor insertion, ensure that the angle of anchor insertion is coaxial to that of the previously prepared bone socket.5.Pushlock and swivelock suture anchors only: insert the driver into the bone socket until the anchor body makes contact with the bone.Preview and adjust suture tension, if necessary.Tension will not increase during final advancement of the anchor body.6.Pushlock and swivelock suture anchors only: ensure that the anchor body is in full contact with the bone before advancing the anchor body into the prepared bone socket.The most likely cause for 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.
