Additional Manufacturer Narrative
It was reported that a revision surgery had to be done due to dislocation.The bipolar cup was dislocated and did not have the head inside it when the parts were removed.The associated tandem bipolar and cobalt chrome femoral head, used in treatment, were not returned for evaluation.Therefore a product analysis could not be performed.Our investigation including a review of the manufacturing records for the listed batches did not reveal any deviation from the standard manufacturing processes.A review of the complaint history for the listed parts revealed no prior complaints for the listed failure mode with the same batch number.At this time, we have no reason to suspect that the products failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A relationship, if any, between the devices and the reported incident could not be corroborated.Review of the instructions for use and risk management files identified the reported failure as potential adverse events.No medical documents were received for investigation.Therefore no medical assessment can be performed at this time.Possible causes could include but not limited to user/procedural variance or surgical technique used.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Without the return of the actual product involved and no patient medical history, our investigation of this report is inconclusive.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however smith and nephew will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.Should the device or additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The associated device, used in treatment, was returned and evaluated.A visual inspection of the returned device could not confirm the stated failure mode.The device was manufactured in 2017.A dimensional evaluation found the device to be within specification.The medical investigation concluded that, per the product evaluation, the dimensional evaluation found the device to be within specification and the stated failure mode could not be confirmed.No change to the previous medical investigation (i-0258736) is otherwise warranted at this time, as clinical/medical supporting documentation has not been provided.A review of complaint history did not reveal additional complaints for the listed batch.A review of the manufacturing records did not reveal a manufacturing abnormality that could have caused or contributed to the reported incident.At this time, we do not have reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.A review of the risk management file and instructions for use documents revealed this failure mode was previously identified.Some potential probable causes for this event could include a traumatic injury or a fit/ sizing issue.Based on this investigation, the need for corrective action is not indicated.Should additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.No further investigation is warranted for this complaint; however, we will continue to monitor for future complaints and investigate as necessary.We consider this investigation closed.
