D1 updated.Product changed from leksell vantage arc system to leksell vantage head frame.The investigation was completed by conducting a thorough evaluation of the reported information.The customer informed that with five minutes remaining in a one-hour treatment the patient became disengaged from the vantage head frame.This was noticed audibly and visually and was attributed to excessive movement by the patient.The remaining treatment was completed with mask immobilization.No injuries or mistreatment to the patient were reported.There is no reason to suspect that there is something wrong with the vantage equipment.The root cause is identified to be use error where the firmfix was fixated with too low torque and probably high position of the frame on the head (which was reported to be conical) in combination with movement of the patient.The user has been informed regarding the difference in torque between the g-frame (previously used by the customer) and the vantage frame and has received the white paper regarding this (leksell vantage stereotactic system head frame fixation - llfvan190624).
