    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    IF INFORMATION IS OBTAINED THAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE INITIAL MEDWATCH, A FOLLOW-UP MEDWATCH WILL BE FILED AS APPROPRIATE. THE DEVICES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS REPORT WERE NOT RETURNED. A COMPLAINT DATABASE SEARCH FINDS NO OTHER REPORTED INCIDENTS AGAINST THE PROVIDED PRODUCT AND LOT COMBINATIONS SINCE THEIR RELEASE FOR DISTRIBUTION. REVIEW OF PROVIDED MEDICAL RECORDS DOES NOT IDENTIFY ANY INFORMATION THAT WOULD AID IN CONCLUDING THE REPORTED INFECTION WAS DEVICE RELATED. ADDITIONALLY, RESEARCH USING THE AS400 SYSTEM INDICATES THAT SEVERAL PIECES FROM THE REPORTED LOTS HAVE BEEN DELIVERED, AND, AS NO ADDITIONAL REPORTS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED, CAN BE REASONABLY ASSUMED IMPLANTED WITHOUT ISSUE. THE INVESTIGATION COULD NOT DRAW ANY CONCLUSIONS REGARDING THE REPORTED EVENT. BASED ON THE INABILITY TO DETERMINE A ROOT CAUSE, THE NEED FOR CORRECTIVE ACTION WAS NOT INDICATED.
