Event or Problem Description

|
It was reported that during a da vinci-assisted hysterectomy surgical procedure, site converted to laparoscopic due to blurry right eye view.In addition, site informed that the faulty endoscope was only fluorescence endoscope and it was mandatory for this surgery, that's why procedure was converted.Intuitive surgical inc.(isi) followed up with the initial reporter and obtained the following additional information: the arm rotated on its own when the surgeon took control of the surgeon's console.According to the customer, it was possibly related to arm positioning.The reporter do not remember which instrument was installed on the arm.It was not an instrument issue, the instrument worked on the other arms.The defective endoscope was a 0° endoscope fluorescence: (b)(4).The surgery was an enlarged colpohysterectomy + pelvic curage performed by dr ducher.The rotation issue occurred while the surgeon's head was inside the high-resolution stereo viewer on the surgeon's console.The issue occurred while the surgeon was trying to manipulate instruments from the surgeon's console.No shakiness and/or friction felt/observed.There was no interference between the instruments or between the arms of the system.There were no external collisions.The issue was intermittent, probably related to arm positioning.The instrument arm drape has been thrown away.The operation was converted, as 1 arm was not usable and one eye of the optics was defective.The conversion did not result in an increase in the size of the incision or the addition of additional ports.The patient did tolerate the conversion.There was no patient harm nor injury.
