Potential open seal pouches compromising sterility resulting in the use of a non-sterile product in surgery could lead to patient infection
A warning has been added to the Surgical Technique for NextAR Shoulder, advising verification of suitable patient conditions prior to placement of the NextAR Shoulder Target Holder: WARNING Target fixation requires adequate coracoid bone stability. Osteoporosis, weakness of the coracoid process, or other deficiencies, could lead to adverse events including bone fracture. Verify that the coracoid bone and relevant patient conditions are suitable before proceeding.
The product was recalled because stability evaluation of the lots indicated a decrease in reactivity that could lead to a potential false-negative result interpretation. The issue was identified by the firm after failing to meet lot requirements for potency. The lot release error was discovered on October 08, 2021, after a failed potency test was determined during 6-month stability evaluation of retention material for the lots. The subsequent manufacturing investigation, which included a review of the lot release potency documentation, found that the initial lot release potency test for the lot was misinterpreted.
