  IT WAS REPORTED THAT, DURING AN ARTHROSCOPIC HIP SURGERY, THE ACTIVE HEEL TRACTION BOOT WAS SLIPPING FROM ITS POSITIONING BECAUSE THE CARRIAGE WAS COMING LOOSE. IT LOOKS AS IF THE SCREW THAT HOLDS THIS IN PLACE WAS NOT AS TIGHT OR MIGHT HAVE ROUNDED OFF. SURGERY WAS COMPLETED WITH THE SAME REPORTED DEVICE. SURGERY WAS NOT DELAYED AS CONSEQUENCE OF THE ALLEGATION. THE PATIENT WAS NOT HARMED. ALL AVAILABLE INFORMATION HAS BEEN DISCLOSED.
