[5283336]
Above knee amputee patient was walking with 10 pound package and stumbled as a result of loss of resistance in symbionic leg. Patient was not injured.
Patient Sequence No: 1, Text Type: D, B5
[12719147]
Mdr decision based on failure analysis completed 01/09/2015. The angle sensor connector had corrosion damages so the signal from the angle sensor was interrupted/inconsistent. When the knee loses the signal or gets a signal that is out of range, the unit can lose resistance and will give out a warning. The knee is not designed for an environment where humidity would condense, see in the ifu. No injury has been reported, occurrence is low, 12 occurrences of this failure mode with only 1 single incident. No field safety corrective action will be executed. However this will be monitored closely and a capa has been initiated see in the corrective action part.
