    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    EXAMINATION OF THE REPORTED DEVICES WAS NOT POSSIBLE AS THEY WERE NOT RETURNED. A SEARCH OF THE WARSAW AND INTERNATIONAL COMPLAINTS DATABASES FINDS NO OTHER REPORTS AGAINST THE FEMORAL STEM PRODUCT AND LOT CODE COMBINATION SINCE ITS RELEASE TO DISTRIBUTION. THE INVESTIGATION CAN DRAW NO CONCLUSION WITH THE INFORMATION PROVIDED. IT IS KNOWN THE ASR PLATFORM WAS VOLUNTARILY RECALLED FROM THE MARKET IN AUGUST 2010, AND THE ASR PRODUCT CODES ARE NOW CONSIDERED INACTIVE. FURTHER INVESTIGATION OF THIS INDIVIDUAL INCIDENT WILL NOT BE UNDERTAKEN, AS THERE IS AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION REGARDING THE ROOT CAUSE(S) AND/OR CORRECTIVE ACTIONS. REF. (B)(4). DEPUY CONSIDERS THE INVESTIGATION CLOSED AT THIS TIME. SHOULD THE PRODUCT AND/OR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BE RECEIVED, THE INVESTIGATION WILL BE RE-OPENED.
