The evaluation noted on (b)(6) 2019 this patient had a second revision surgery.This revision was due to the patient woke up in his bed and his hip was dislocated.The surgeon decided to remove the liner and head and put the same liner back in with a +10 head in to give the patient more leg length.This made the patient stable.The patient left the operating room in stable condition and is expected to have a good outcome.Hospital did not release implants to be returned to exactech.In a review of the labeling and ifu 700-096-004 rev.N, the patient should be cautioned to monitor activities and protect the replaced joint from unreasonable stresses, and follow the written instructions of the physician with respect to follow-up care and treatment.Upon review of the available information, there is no evidence that this is a device related malfunction and there is no allegation against the device.Implantation of a total joint could result pain, infection, or loosening of total joint hardware.The most likely cause of the reported event is patient condition.Concomitant medical device(s): pf spline plasma w/ha ext offset sz 10 (cat# 160-31-10, sn# (b)(4)).Bone screw 6.5mm dia x 20mm long (cat# 120-65-20, sn# (b)(4)).Cocr fem head 36mm +0 offset 12/14 (cat# 142-36-00, sn# (b)(4)).Nv crown cup clstr hole 52mm group 2 (cat# 180-01-52, sn# (b)(4)).
