It was reported a procedure was completed with the use of an expired product. It is believed the product is still implanted. The hospital staff initially responded the lot number reported was used for a case that occurred in (b)(6) 2016. This information did not match the information contained in the charge sheet that integra had. The hospital materials manager looked up the case they had for the expired product, and no lot number was recorded in their records. She stated she will have to go back to the patient implant record to verify the event (patient procedure details/date and lot used). Any new or additional information related to this event will be reported in a follow up medwatch report.

The hospital has a? Hard consignment? Agreement where replacement product is directly requested by the hospital of customer service. Those records have the correct lot # for the product used in this event, lot# 1150180, which was not expired at the time of implantation. The duplicate sales order was created in error. No expired product was implanted. Integra completed its internal investigation 1nov2016. The investigation included: method: - review of device history records. - review of complaint management database for similar complaints. Results: although the product was not implanted expired as per new information received on october 03, 2016, the manufacturing process of finished good lot 1150180 was reviewed. Finished goods (fg) lot 1150180 was released on 02/11/15 and its expiration date is 2017-01. According to the dhr review, no anomalies were reported during the packaging process of this lot that could be related to the initial reported condition. No patient harm was reported as part of this incident since no expired product was implanted and no additional complaints have been reported for this fg lot 1150180. A review of complaint system is not necessary at this time since according to the additional information received on october 03, 2016 there was no expired device implanted. Conclusion: the root cause is related to the miss-transcribed lot number 1140388 instead of lot number 1150180 on a duplicate sales order by the sales representative at the reporting facility. Based on the additional information provided on the complaint record on october 03, 2016 (no expired product was implanted) and the failure analysis that was made taking into account the retain samples evaluation, the initial reported incident (expired product) could not be associated to the manufacturing / packaging process performed.
