Based on the current information provided, the cause of the operative complication cannot be determined.Intuitive surgical, inc.(isi) has not received the instrument involved with this event for failure analysis evaluation.A follow-up mdr will be submitted if additional information is obtained.A system log review was performed for this procedure and the following relevant error was observed: error code 256 ¿ emergency stop button was pressed by a user on the patient side cart (psc).An advanced system log review for the 30 degree endoscope plus / universal surgical manipulators was performed for this procedure by an isi advanced failure analysis engineer (afa).Per afa, there was one engagement failure on universal surgical manipulator (usm) 3 with an unknown tool (instrument or scope).There were also several e-stop presses around the time of the engagement failure so those could have been due to the inverted image that the complaint mentions.However, the logs don¿t show anything that can confirm the image was inverted.Not many engagement failures were seen on this arm [usm] aside from these two procedures so it isn¿t necessarily saying that there was something wrong with the arm [usm].This may have been a draping or endoscope issue.This event is being reported due to the following conclusion: during a da vinci-assisted radical prostatectomy with lymphadenectomy procedure, the patient experienced minimally increased blood loss due to the 30 degree endoscope plus experiencing image inversion.The endoscope moved with unintuitive movements with reversed control of the endoscope despite correct alignment and installation.The cause of the operative complication is unknown.
