Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.The complaint is considered confirmed because a revision surgery date was confirmed with the surgeon.No product was returned; therefore, no functional tests or inspections could be performed.The dhr for the mandible component was reviewed.Nc8798 was opened to address the fact that the inspector used the incorrect inspection method for all four item# 24-6555, lot# 774110b; however, the parts were reinspected and determined to be acceptable.There are no indications of manufacturing defects.This is the only complaint for this part# 24-6555, lot# 774110b.For all non-custom tmj mandibular implants in the previous one year (from the notification date) regarding malpositioning, there is a complaint rate of 0.19%, which is no greater than the occurrence listed in the application fmea.For all non-custom tmj mandibular implants in the previous one year (from the notification date) regarding malocclusion, there is a complaint rate of 0.38%, which is no greater than the occurrence listed in the application fmea.For all non-custom tmj mandibular implants in the previous one year (from the notification date) regarding pain leading to a revision surgery, there is a complaint rate of 0.34%, which is no greater than the occurrence listed in the application fmea.The most likely underlying cause of the complaint is due to the malpositioning of the devices.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
