    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 0

    ADDITIONAL NARRATIVE: INVESTIGATION SUMMARY ==> ACCORDING TO THE INFORMATION PROVIDED, IT WAS REPORTED THAT WHILE CHECKING THE LENDING SET WE FOUND OUT THAT THE ARTICLES ARE RUSTING. THE COMPLAINT DEVICE WAS RECEIVED AND EVALUATED. VISUAL OBSERVATION REVEALS THAT THE DEVICE IS SLIGHTLY WORN, BUT IN EXPECTED CONDITION. A FEW SPOTS OF CORROSION CAN BE OBSERVED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE DEVICE. ACCORDING WITH THE VISUAL INSPECTION RESULT, THIS COMPLAINT CAN BE CONFIRMED. THE POSSIBLE ROOT CAUSE FOR THE REPORTED CONDITION CAN BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE STERILIZATION PROCESS IN AUTOCLAVE, THE DEVICE WAS POSSIBLY LEFT TO DRY ALONG WITH OTHER METAL INSTRUMENTS RESULTING IN GALVANIC CORROSION. HOWEVER, THIS CANNOT BE CONCLUSIVE DETERMINED. AS A POTENTIAL CAUSE CANNOT BE ASSOCIATED TO MANUFACTURING, THEREFORE A MANUFACTURING RECORD EVALUATION IS NOT REQUIRED. AT THIS POINT IN TIME, NO CORRECTIVE ACTION IS REQUIRED AND NO FURTHER ACTION IS WARRANTED. HOWEVER, DEPUY SYNTHES MITEK WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK ANY RELATED COMPLAINTS WITHIN THIS DEVICE FAMILY AS A MEANS OF MONITORING THE EXTENT WITH WHICH THIS COMPLAINT IS OBSERVED IN THE FIELD.
