    Narratives

    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    ADDITIONAL NARRATIVE: NO DEVICE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS REPORT WAS RECEIVED FOR EXAMINATION. A WORLDWIDE COMPLAINT DATABASE SEARCH FOUND NO OTHER REPORTED INCIDENT(S) AGAINST THE PROVIDED PRODUCT/LOT COMBINATION(S) SINCE RELEASE FOR DISTRIBUTION. BASED ON PREVIOUS INVESTIGATIONS THIS COMPLICATION OF JOINT REPLACEMENT IS UNLIKELY TO HAVE BEEN THE RESULT OF A DEVICE FAILING TO MEET REQUIRED SPECIFICATIONS. THE INFORMATION RECEIVED WILL BE RETAINED FOR POTENTIAL SERIES INVESTIGATIONS IF TRIGGERED BY TREND ANALYSIS, POST MARKET SURVEILLANCE, OR OTHER EVENTS WITHIN THE QUALITY SYSTEM. CORRECTIVE ACTION WAS NOT INDICATED. DEPUY CONSIDERS THE INVESTIGATION CLOSED AT THIS TIME. SHOULD ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BE RECEIVED, THE INFORMATION WILL BE REVIEWED AND THE INVESTIGATION WILL BE RE-OPENED AS NECESSARY.
