Event or Problem Description
It was reported that during a hip arthroscopy the device had the right labelling outside the box and package but when the device was opened, the material was not the one that they use.It was a different part of what the customer ordered.The device was used by error.A backup device was available to complete the procedure successfully.Delay or patient injuries were not reported.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The device in question will not be returned for evaluation.Visual assessment of the blades confirmed the reported complaint.The bend orientation (convex instead of concave) is incorrect.This error results in the cutting window being located incorrectly relative to the bend.As an immediate response to this complaint, a quality alert was issued and a retraining of the machine operators to the manufacturing process was performed.In addition a root cause investigation has been opened to address this failure mode.
