Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Product complaint # (b)(4).Investigation summary: according to the information received, it was reported that on unknown date, the patient underwent the surgery with the product in question.The event occurred which is still being confirmed.The surgery was completed successfully without any surgical delay.No further information is available.The product was returned to depuy synthes for evaluation.The depuy synthes team conducted a visual inspection of the returned device.Visual analysis of the returned device revealed that the attune cr fem trial sz 7 rt has broken the condyle.The fragment was returned for evaluation.The fracture surface is consistent with overload due to a combination of heavy impaction and the trial fitting too tight over the posterior/anterior aspect of the resected femur bone forcing the curved features of the femoral trial to open.The combination of heavy impaction and possible discrepancies in the resection depth between the femur and the trial suggest unintended user error.Furthermore, per the attune surgical technique (dsus/jrc/0316/1437 rev.K) it is cautioned when extracting the trial, rocking the trial medio-laterally may cause condylar fracture.Such rocking should be avoided.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 attune cr fem trial sz 7 rt would have contributed to the complained device issue.¿ based on the investigation findings, the potential cause is traced to unintended use error, 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 depuy synthes 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- the product investigation found no evidence suspecting an error in the manufacturing or material that would be a contributing factor in the reported allegation(s).A manufacturing records evaluation (mre) was not performed.Corrected: h3.
