Enforcement Report for May 30, 2012
"As part of FDA's efforts to increase the transparency of its compliance and enforcement data, FDA will soon be introducing a very different Enforcement Report format aiming to deliver a simpler, clearer report that encourages data download and analyses while also providing savings and encouraging future innovation for Government. Instead of the narrative report you see now, you will find a data-driven report encouraging innovative stakeholders to extract more intelligence out of the data and providing FDA a baseline as it moves forward in its efforts to integrate the Agency's compliance and enforcement data.
We expect to publish the new report mid-June. This will not be the first and only iteration of the report. We want your feedback - the good, the bad, and the ugly. So please be on the lookout for the new report and e-mail us at webmail@oc.fda.gov with your comments."

The FDA begins a pilot program seeking to expedite notifications of human drug product recalls to the public. The agency will modify the drug product section of the Enforcement Report, published every Wednesday, to include actions that have been determined to be recalls, but that remain in the process of being classified as a Class I, II, or III action. Such recalls will be listed under the heading, “Recalls Pending Classification: DRUGS.” They will be reposted with their classification once that determination has been made. Send comments or suggestions to CDERRecallPilot@fda.hhs.gov

RECALLING FIRM/MANUFACTURER
Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc., Indianapolis, IN, by letter dated March 12, 2012. Firm initiated recall is ongoing.
REASON
An investigation has confirmed a considerably reduced recovery of Li-heparin plasma samples for Troponin I lot 163176 and Troponin I STAT lot 163177. In the worst case, Li-Heparin sample recovery may be as low as 50% of the serum recovery. Correct serum recovery has been confirmed for the affected lots. The issue is caused by the raw material lot (Poly-L-Lysin) instability. Poly-L-Lysin is the agent required to ensure correct recovery of Troponin I in Li-Heparin plasma samples. After the manufacturing of lot 163xxx a change to the formulation was made (a protease inhibitor was added) to further increase the already established shelf life of the reagent. Reagent lots 164xxx and higher are being manufactured with the protease inhibitor and do not exhibit reduced recovery for Li-Heparin samples.

The recall correction includes adding precautions to the Instructions for Use regarding the placement of a 4.1mm D Trabecular Metal implant in mandibles with dense(Type D1), thick, inferior border, which will provide a wider apical osteotomy to ensure that the apical tip of the implant is not subjected to excessive torque during the final seating process.

Cutting Edge Acetabular Spherical Reamer 44 M. The CuttingEdge acetabular reamers are used to ream the acetabulum and prepare the bone for the insertion of the shell during hip arthroplasty. Surgical procedures for shells used with CuttingEdge instruments indicate that reaming should begin with a Spherical Reamer that is 4mm smaller than the templated or gauged size of the planned shell. Per the procedures, reaming should increase in size by 1mm increments until final sizing is achieved. Surgical judgment is used to assess bone stock, bone quality, desired level of press fit, and proper amount of reaming. Catalog Number 2102-0444 No 510 K number. Recall # Z-1618-2012

Ingenuity TF PET/MRI System v.3.7.1, 510(k) #K103483, Model #882380. The device is a diagnostic imaging system for fixed installations that combines Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The system does not expose the patient to any ionizing radiation. The MRI Subsystem produces cross-sectional images, spectroscopy images and/or spectra in any orientation of the internal structures of the whole body. The PET subsystem produces images of the distribution of PET radiopharmaceuticals in the patient’s body (specific pharmaceuticals are used for whole body, brain, and other organ imaging). The PET and MRI portion of the system can be used either as an integrated system or as a stand-alone MRI or PET system. The MRI subsystem provides data suitable for use in attenuation correction of the PET acquired data. Recall # Z-1646-2012

REASON
The QuietCare production system experienced a partial outage on 7/29/11. As a result of the partial outage, some monitoring data about residents' movements was not processed in the production system, and alerts were therefore not sent to caregivers. The problem was identified and corrected and the unprocessed data was recovered and processed. However, because of the time lag in processing, a feature of the system that disables duplicate delivery of old alerts prevented a few alerts from being generated. The raw data was then analyzed further and caregivers were contacted to determine the impact of potential missed alerts.
