FDA Class II Recall: Brand Name: Veritas Standard Reverse Total Shoulder Product… by restor3d Inc. — Recall Details

Key facts

What consumers should do

Facilities, clinicians, and consumers holding an affected unit or lot of Brand Name: Veritas Standard Reverse Total Shoulder Product Name: Veritas Standard Glenoid Baseplate Model/Catalog Number: 1500-1030; 1500-1035 Software Version: N/A - off-the-shelf hardware product Product Description: The restor3d Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty System is intended for patients requiring a reverse shoulder replacement for patients with a functional deltoid muscle and with a deficient rotator cuff. The restor3d Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty System consists of the glenoid baseplate, glenosphere intraoperatively affixed to the baseplate, humeral stem, and polymer bearing component affixed to the humeral stem. Additionally, the system includes supporting standard instrument trays and all required accessories (e.g., security screws, peripheral screws). The restor3d rTSA System is indicated for use in patients whose shoulder joint has a grossly deficient rotator cuff with severe arthropathy and/or previously failed shoulder joint replacement with a grossly deficient rotator cuff. The Veritas standard glenoid baseplate is the only component within scope of this field action. The patient-specific baseplate is unaffected by this defect and therefore not in scope. Component: Reverse Total Shoulder should stop using it for the purpose described in the recall notice and hold remaining stock pending instructions from restor3d Inc.. FDA recall records typically direct the recalling firm to notify known accounts directly with a recall letter describing the specific corrective action -- replacement, field correction, refund, or return. Anyone who received the product through a distributor rather than directly from restor3d Inc. should confirm with their supplier whether their specific lot or unit is on the affected list, since recall notices are lot- or unit-specific and not every unit of a product line is necessarily included. Questions about a specific unit's status should go to restor3d Inc. directly or to the distributor that supplied it; Argus HQ is a public-record aggregator, not the recalling firm, and cannot confirm individual unit status.

What this classification means

A Class II recall is FDA’s middle classification. FDA assigns Class II when use of, or exposure to, the recalled product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote. FDA still requires the recalling firm to notify affected accounts and submit status reports on the correction, though the monitoring intensity is lower than for a Class I recall. FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (for devices) or Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (for drugs) reviews the classification and can require additional corrective action if the initial response is judged insufficient. Because this record is filed as Class II, professionals and consumers handling an affected lot should treat FDA's own classification -- not this page's summary of it -- as the authoritative risk signal. A Class I recall is FDA’s most serious classification. FDA assigns Class I when there is a reasonable probability that use of, or exposure to, the recalled product will cause serious adverse health consequences or death. This classification does not mean harm has already occurred in every case -- it reflects FDA’s assessment of the realistic worst-case risk profile of the defect described in the recall, based on the reason for recall reported by the firm. Class I recalls receive the closest FDA monitoring of the three classes: the recalling firm typically must submit a recall strategy, periodic status reports, and effectiveness checks confirming that the affected lots have actually been removed from distribution or corrected in the field.
