Additional Manufacturer Narrative
H11: h3, h6: the reported device was received for evaluation.A visual inspection revealed the device was returned in original packaging with the batch number of the complaint on the label.One white and one blue/white suture were run through the eyelet of the anchor.The anchor is off the device.The proximal end of the anchor is fractured.The sutures and insertion device had no visible defect other than bio debris.Bio debris was present.Based on the condition of the product material found during visual inspection, additional material testing is not required.A review of device records showed there were no indications to suggest that the product did not meet manufacturing specifications upon release for distribution.A complaint history review found similar reported events.A risk management review found that the reported failure and/or harm was documented appropriately, and there were no indications to suggest the anticipated risk is not adequate.A review of the material specifications found that the storage requirements for the material are specified, and the material must comply with provided percentage composition specifications as measured by ash test.The root cause of the reported event could not be determined since findings cannot lead to a clear cause of the reported event.Factors that could have contributed to the reported event include excessive/improper force or torque on the device, attempted correction of a damaged device, off-axis insertion, improper preparation of the insertion site, or an inadvertent impact event inconsistent with normal use.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.
