    (B)(4). THIS FOLLOW-UP REPORT IS BEING SUBMITTED TO RELAY ADDITIONAL AND/OR CORRECTED INFORMATION. THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS WERE UPDATED: B4, B5, G3, G6, H2, H3, H6, H10, H11. NO PRODUCT WAS RETURNED OR PICTURES PROVIDED; A PRODUCT EVALUATION COULD NOT BE PERFORMED. A REVIEW OF THE DEVICE MANUFACTURING RECORDS COULD NOT BE PERFORMED DUE TO MISSING LOT NUMBER. REVIEW OF THE COMPLAINT HISTORIES FOUND NO ADDITIONAL RELATED COMPLAINTS FOR THESE ITEMS. A DEFINITIVE ROOT CAUSE OF THE HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL INJURY COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. HOWEVER, THE INVESTIGATION INDICATES THAT BOTH INSTRUMENTS ARE NOT COMPATIBLE IN TERMS OF DIAMETER. THIS COULD BE A POSSIBLE CONTRIBUTING FACTOR TO THE REPORTED EVENT. 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.
