Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.The reported event could not be confirmed due to lack of product/information.The product involved in the reported event was not returned for investigation; however, a picture was provided and shows the head and the liner explanted with blood on.The head exhibits marking which is visually consistent with metal transfer.It is unknown if this occurred from the dislocations or during explant.No further evaluation can be made.A single undated radiograph was received and assessed and not submitted to radiology at this time.Because there is no date, it is unknown when this might have been taken as there is a 1-year timeframe between initial surgery and revision for dislocation.The device history record was reviewed and no discrepancies relevant to the reported event were found.A definitive root cause cannot be determined.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
