Event Description

Medtronic received information regarding a navigation system used during a functional endoscopic sinus surgery (fess).It was reported that while registering the patient the surgeon was able to get an error of 1.3 mm but when they proceeded to verify the registration they were 2-3 mm off to the patient's right and slightly off the surface of the skin.It was verified that the patient tracker was accurately portrayed in the software and they added a touchpoint with no change.The instruments were replaced and the patient was re-registered with an error of 2.3mm and the inaccuracy was still present by the same amount and in the same direction.The same exam was loaded onto another system and they registered with no perceived inaccuracy.There was a delay of less than one hour and no impact to the patient.
