Reason
OrthoPediatrics has initiated a Voluntary RECALL of Part # 00-0903-2620, 3.5MM Locking Cortical Screw, Lot # 009SV because the device within the package may be incorrect. These packages incorrectly contain a 3.5mm Non Locking Cortical Screw # 00-1050-3524.
Root cause
Labeling mix-ups
Action
Orthopediatrics Corporation has requested sales representatives and distributors who have been identified via shipping records as having the possibility of having received one or more discrepant devices affected by this Recall were requested to quarantine the devices identified in this Recall by telephone on January 8, 2014. The decision to Recall these devices was made and a formal written Recall Notice sent to the consignees via email on January 13, 2014. Notification will not be sent to hospitals at this time provided that all devices are retrieved or accounted for within 60 days of the initiation of recall. Hospitals will be notified on an as needed basis if OrthoPediatrics determines that all recalled devices have not been recovered or accounted for, and that contacting the hospitals involved will expedite the recall efforts. All discrepant devices subject to this voluntary Recall are planned to be returned from distribution to OrthoPediatrics Corp. in Warsaw, Indiana and maintained in quarantine. All remaining unshipped devices from these lots have been placed in quarantine at OrthoPediatrics Corp. All quarantined devices at OrthoPediatrics will be inspected and repackaged to correct the mislabeling per normal documented procedures. Objective evidence will be maintained of the rework of the devices. For questions regarding this recall call 574-268-6379.
