Reason for recall
The firm determined that the labeling (surgical technique) should be updated to clarify the proper technique and instrumentation to remove the tamp assembly from the bone, i.e., to include a caution statement about the potential for instrument breakage if the tamp handle/guide is misused by impacting in retro-grade.
Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.
