    DEPUY SYNTHES IS SUBMITTING THIS REPORT PURSUANT TO THE PROVISION OF 21 CFR, PART 803. THE REPORT MAY BE BASED ON THE INFORMATION WHICH DEPUY SYNTHES HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO INVESTIGATE OR VERIFY PRIOR TO THE REQUIRED REPORTING DATE. THIS REPORT DOES NOT REFLECT A CONCLUSION BY FDA, DEPUY SYNTHES OR ITS EMPLOYEES THAT THE REPORT CONSTITUTES AN ADMISSION THAT THE DEVICE, DEPUY SYNTHES, OR ITS EMPLOYEES CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO THE POTENTIAL EVENT DESCRIBED IN THIS REPORT. PRODUCT COMPLAINT (B)(4). INVESTIGATION SUMMARY : THE COMPLAINT STATES: ¿THE CUSTOMER INFORMS WITH THE CEMENT WITH GENTA, CODE 3315040 AND LOT 8770410, DOES NOT CONTAIN THE INTERNAL STICKER WITH THE PRODUCT DATA. THE CUSTOMER OPENED 3 BOX OF THE PRODUCT (ALL WITHOUT THE STICKER) AND THEY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 160 UNITS (UNUSED) AND THESE PRODUCTS COULD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. WHAT IS THE ORIENTATION FOR THESE CASES?¿ THE COMPLAINT DESCRIPTION IMPLIES THAT THE PATIENT LABELS WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE UNIT CARTONS FOR THE PRODUCTS LISTED IN THE COMPLAINT. THE PATIENT LABEL SHEET CONTAINS 6 COPIES OF THE PRODUCT INFORMATION FOR THE SURGICAL TEAM/ HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATION TO APPLY TO THE RELEVANT PATIENT RECORDS. THE RECEIVED SAMPLES WERE EXAMINED AND CONFIRM THAT NO PATIENT LABELS WERE PRESENT IN THE UNIT CARTONS. 3 RETAINED SAMPLES WERE EXAMINED, BUT NO FURTHER INSTANCES OF MISSING LABELS WERE DISCOVERED. THE PATIENT LABELS ARE AUTOMATICALLY STREAM-FED INTO THE UNIT CARTON DURING FINAL PACKING AS PER MPS-C-02. AFTER THE LABEL IS ADDED, THE UNIT CARTON IS CLOSED BY MACHINE AND WEIGHED AUTOMATICALLY. THE UNIT CARTON WILL BE REJECTED IF THE WEIGHT OF THE CARTON IS OUT OF TOLERANCE ACCORDING TO SCP-OWC. DUE TO THE ACTUAL WEIGHT OF THE PATIENT LABEL SHEET, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT MISSING PATIENT LABELS ARE NOT DETECTED AT THIS STAGE. AS THE UNIT CARTON HAS BEEN CLOSED, A VISUAL INSPECTION IS NOT POSSIBLE. THE ROOT CAUSE FOR THIS ISSUE RELATES TO THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. THIS COMPLAINT HAS BEEN ESCALATED AS PER SEP-330. (B)(4) ARE IN PROCESS TO INVESTIGATE THE IMPACT OF THIS FAILURE AND AGREE ANY NECESSARY CORRECTIVE ACTION. THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS RECEIVED FOR THIS FAILURE MODE WILL CONTINUE TO BE MONITORED AND PRODUCT UPDATES/ RECOMMENDATIONS WILL BE IMPLEMENTED AT THE POST MARKET SURVEILLANCE REVIEW DEPENDENT UPON OCCURRENCE RATINGS. DEPUY SYNTHES CONSIDERS THE INVESTIGATION CLOSED AT THIS TIME. SHOULD ADDITIONAL INFORMATION BE RECEIVED, THE INFORMATION WILL BE REVIEWED AND THE INVESTIGATION MAY BE RE-OPENED AS REQUIRED. IF INFORMATION IS OBTAINED THAT WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE INITIAL MEDWATCH, A FOLLOW-UP MEDWATCH WILL BE FILED AS APPROPRIATE.
