Event or Problem Description
Medtronic received information regarding a navigation system used during a cranial resection procedure.It was reported that after registration the camera cart on this system turned off.The main cart remained on, but pulling in a different camera cart did not resolve.The local representative (cc) also tried a new umbilical with no change.The camera cart monitor was off and the camera itself had no lights and no laser displayed.There was a reported delay to the procedure of less than one hour.There was no reported impact to the patient.The cc called to troubleshoot the system further.However, the other navigation system was unavailable then, and the cc had no tools to remove the system covers.At the time of the call, the navigation system main was powered on, but the camera cart was off even though they were booted together.The camera cart did not respond to rebooting the main cart.The site and cc turned off the main cart and left it unplugged from the wall for approximately 30 seconds.This resolved the issue of the camera cart not booting.The original issue seemed to be resolved. after they booted the application and stayed on the registration screen for about 5 minutes, the camera cart seemed to reboot itself.The cc stated that the screen went to a black screen with the "terradici pcoip" icon in the middle, went black, then into a terradici pcoip loading screen.After a few minutes of the loading screen, the camera cart resumed from the state where the "reboot" occurred.The camera did not beep once, then twice, indicating that the camera did not lose power.At technical services' (ts) lab, they unplugged and plugged the power cable to the pc over ip (pcoip) client in the camera cart.This replicated the screen the cc was seeing.The camera did not beep on our end, either.It was concluded that there seemed to be two issues with this camera cart.The first was a power-related issue that caused the camera cart to shut down and remain off.The second was where the pcoip client was cycling power, making it seem as if the camera cart was fully rebooting when it was not.The camera not beeping during this occurrence indicated that the camera consistently remained on during the pcoip cycling.Additional information was received.It was reported that the system was plugged into a known functioning outlet when the issue occurred.The booting issue was solved after the fact.The system was swapped out with a known functioning system.
