Corrosion could cause performance failures in the product.

The J Lock feature on the cannula body was manufactured incorrectly, preventing the cannula from locking into an irrigation extender or arthroscope in the correct orientation.

When the delivery catheter was attempted to be removed, there was an observed connection between the stent graft and the delivery catheter that prevented the delivery catheter from being withdrawn.

Due to incomplete machining a small peg remnant on the top of the dome that protrudes above the surrounding porous coating causing the cup not to seat properly.

Zimmer Biomet is conducting a medical device recall for three lots of the RingLoc Bi-Polar Hip system Acetabular Cup. The affected lots were gamma sterilized twice. Sufficient data does not exist to support the functionality, shelf life, or package integrity for more than one-time sterilization.

The indwell time for the Percutaneous Neonatal Pigtail Nephrostomy Set and Pediatric Nephrostomy Stent Set is decreasing from 4 months to 4 weeks. The current IFU is in process of being updated and will be provided with orders placed following implementation.

There is a potential for the retaining pin of the tibial punch handle to become loose and fall out while impacting. If undetected, there is a potential of leaving debris in the joint space.

MicroPort Orthopedics Inc. states that there have been reports of fractures of the long and extra-long Titanium modular femoral neck component after implantation. Worldwide there were 680 Long and X-Long PROFEMUR Titanium modular neck fractures among 123,840 global sales representing is a cumulative rate of modular neck device fracture of 0.55% from 2002 to 2019. Within the United States there were 349 Long and X-Long PROFEMUR¿ Titanium modular neck fractures among 15,786 United States sales representing a cumulative rate of modular neck device fracture with a fracture rate in the United States of 2.21% from 2002 to 2019. There is an average time of 5.4 years to device fracture after implantation.

LivaNova received complaints indicating the impossibility to collapse Perceval valve during procedure. The Dual Collapser is a component of the Perceval single use accessory kits used to reduce the Perceval Sutureless heart valve diameter before valve implant, allowing the Perceval implantation. The issue is relevant to specific lots of Dual Collapser size S/M.
