    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 0

    BY THE CHECK OF THE DEVICE HISTORY RECORDS, NO PRE-EXISTING ANOMALY WAS DETECTED ON THE 49 DEVICES MANUFACTURED WITH THE SAME LOT 2223045, STER. 2200297. ACCORDING TO OUR RECORDS, AT LEAST (B)(4) PROTRUDED LINERS WITH LOT 2223045 - STER. 2200297 HAVE BEEN IMPLANTED AND THIS IS THE ONLY COMPLAINT RECEIVED ON THIS LOT NUMBER. THE DEVICE INVOLVED WAS RETURNED TO LIMACORPORATE FOR FURTHER ANALYSIS. VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE LINER SHOWS BARELY A DAMAGE ON THE TOP. NO VISIBLE DAMAGE OR BENT ISSUES CAN BE SEEN ON THE PEG. FUNCTIONAL TEST WAS PERFORMED ON THE PROTRUDED LINER INVOLVED IN THE CURRENT COMPLAINT AND AN ACETABULAR CUP OF SAME SIZE. PROTRUDED LINER WAS PROPERLY COUPLED TO ACETABULAR CUPS. THE TEST PROVED THAT THE STABILITY OF THE POLY LINER INSIDE THE CUP IS ACHIEVED IF THE ASSEMBLY IS PERFORMED ACCORDING TO THE SURGICAL TECHNIQUE. THEREFORE, WE CAN ASSUME THAT THE POSSIBLE CAUSES FOR THE INTRA-OPERATIVE ISSUE OCCURRED, AND THE NECESSITY OF AN EARLY REVISION SURGERY COULD BE: EVENTUAL PRESENCE OF SOFT TISSUE/PARTICLES BETWEEN THE CONTACTING SURFACES OF LINER AND CUP. SUCH MATERIAL PREVENTS THE CORRECT COUPLING BETWEEN COMPONENTS DURING THE SURGERY. OR IT MIGHT BE DUE AN IMPROPER POSITIONING OF THE LINER WHEN LODGED IN THE ACETABULAR CUP PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PROTRUSION PLANE OF PROTRUDED LINERS MIGHT MISTAKENLY BE TAKEN AS THE REFERENCE PLANE OF THE LINER WHEN SEATED INSIDE THE CUP, INSTEAD OF THE EQUATORIAL PLANE. CONSIDERING THAT: CHECK OF THE MANUFACTURING CHARTS HIGHLIGHTED; NO PRE-EXISTING ON DEVICES MANUFACTURED WITH LOT 2223045 ON THE FUNCTIONAL TEST PERFORMED; LINER INVOLVED IN THE CURRENT COMPLAINT WAS PROPERLY COUPLED TO ACETABULAR CUP. WE CAN ASSUME THAT THE POSSIBLE CAUSE OF THE EVENT IS EVENTUAL PRESENCE OF SOFT TISSUE/PARTICLES BETWEEN SURFACES THAT PREVENT THE CORRECT COUPLING, OR IT MIGHT BE DUE AN IMPROPER POSITIONING OF THE LINER IN THE CUP (USER ERROR). WE CANNOT GO BACK WITH CERTAINTY TO THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE EVENT. WE CAN CLASSIFY THIS EVENT AS NOT PRODUCT RELATED. PMS DATA: ACCORDING TO LIMACORPORATE PMS DATA, THE REVISION RATE OF POST-OPERATIVE LOOSENING OF DELTA PROTRUDED LINERS (BELONGING TO THE DEVICE CODES 5886.5X.XXX) (B)(4) (WW). AS CORRECTIVE ACTION CAPA WITH REF. Q20240008 WAS OPENED, WHICH INCLUDES TRAINING ADDRESSED TO PRODUCT MANAGERS AND SALES REPRESENTATIVES TO FOCUS THE ATTENTION ON STEPS DESCRIBED IN THE SURGICAL TECHNIQUE TO PROPERLY COUPLE PROTRUDED LINERS TO ACETABULAR CUPS. THIS IS A FINAL MDR REPORT.
