    Narratives

    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    EXAMINATION OF THE REPORTED DEVICES WAS NOT POSSIBLE AS THEY WERE NOT RETURNED. A SEARCH OF THE COMPLAINTS DATABASES FINDS NO OTHER REPORTS OF ANY KIND AGAINST THE A4BGD1 LOT CODE. ADDITIONALLY, RESEARCH USING THE AS400 SYSTEM INDICATES THAT SEVERAL OTHER DEVICES FROM THE REPORTED LOT HAVE BEEN DELIVERED AND ARE CONSIDERED SUCCESSFULLY IMPLANTED AS NO OTHER REPORTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED. IT IS KNOWN THE ASR PLATFORM WAS VOLUNTARILY RECALLED FROM THE MARKET IN AUGUST 2010, AND THE ASR PRODUCT CODES ARE NOW CONSIDERED INACTIVE. THE INVESTIGATION CAN DRAW NO CONCLUSIONS WITH THE INFORMATION PROVIDED. BASED ON THE PERFORMED INVESTIGATION AND LACK OF PRODUCT TO EXAMINE, THE NEED FOR FURTHER CORRECTIVE ACTION HAS NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED. DEPUY CONSIDERS THE INVESTIGATION CLOSED AT THIS TIME. SHOULD THE PRODUCT AND/OR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BE RECEIVED, THE INVESTIGATION WILL BE RE-OPENED.
