Description

K2M Special Connector Instruments (Special Connector, Special Adaptor, and Quick Adaptor) Product Usage: Special Connector Instruments include an additional feature on their shafts that enable surgeon users to combine them with non-K2M navigation systems as part of their standard surgical technique.

Reason

Instruments were developed without adequate consideration given to the need for a new regulatory filing. This event was reported to FDA as part of Stryker's retrospective review of K2M product field actions; recall actions were completed in 2017.

Action

K2M notified customers with a Recall Notification Letter dated December 2, 2016. The letter instructed customers to locate and segregate recalled product, complete a tracking/verification form, and return the product to K2M. The product was reintroduced to the market after K2M obtained new 510(k) clearance for the product. for question call at 571-919-2000
