THE DEPUY SYNTHES TEAM CONDUCTED A VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE RETURNED DEVICE. VISUAL ANALYSIS OF THE RETURNED SAMPLE REVEALED THAT THE PFNA-II BLADE L90 TAN [04.027.053S/677P267] EXHIBITS SIGNS OF NORMAL USE. NO SIGNIFICANT PRODUCT PROBLEM WAS OBSERVED ON THE SURFACE OF THE DEVICE. A FUNCTIONAL TEST WAS PERFORMED, THE LOCKING SCREW WORK CORRECTLY. THE COMPLAINT CONDITION WAS NOT ABLE TO BE REPLICATED. THE LOCK/UNLOCK FUNCTION CAN BE PERFORMED WITHOUT PROBLEMS. A DIMENSIONAL INSPECTION WAS NOT PERFORMED AS IT IS NOT APPLICABLE TO THE COMPLAINT CONDITION. THE OVERALL COMPLAINT WAS NOT CONFIRMED AS THE OBSERVED CONDITION OF THE PFNA-II BLADE L90 TAN [04.027.053S/677P267] WOULD NOT CONTRIBUTE TO THE COMPLAINED DEVICE ISSUE. THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT A DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING ISSUE HAS CAUSED THE COMPLAINT CONDITION AND HENCE THE ROOT CAUSE CANNOT BE DETERMINED. BASED ON THE INVESTIGATION FINDINGS, IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT NO CORRECTIVE AND/OR PREVENTATIVE ACTION IS PROPOSED.

AS PART OF DEPUY SYNTHES QUALITY PROCESS, ALL DEVICES ARE MANUFACTURED, INSPECTED, AND RELEASED TO APPROVED SPECIFICATIONS. DEVICE WAS USED FOR TREATMENT, NOT DIAGNOSIS. IF INFORMATION IS OBTAINED THAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE INITIAL MEDWATCH, A FOLLOW-UP MEDWATCH WILL BE FILED AS APPROPRIATE.
