It was reported that during cori assisted tka surgery, the cori knee tensioner kept disconnecting.For 2 seconds it would act as thought, the piece was connected properly to the system and then would disconnect.The tech disconnected and reconnected the reusable and disposable pieces but this did not work.I tried switching usb ports and this did not work.Surgery was resumed after a non-significant delay by manual procedure.No injuries to the patient were reported.

H3, h6: the cori knee tensioner, part number rob10100, serial number unknown, intended for treatment was not returned for evaluation, therefore a device analysis was unable to be performed.A complaint history review for similar reported/confirmed complaints has identified prior events.While all products met required manufacturing specifications prior to release a serial number, lot number, part revision or software version is required to link the device to a dhr or nc investigation.The failure mode and associated risk have been anticipated within the risk file and the documented risk level is still adequate.A historical escalation event review was not completed.The product was not returned, and no evidence was made available to link the complaint to an escalation event.We have no reason to suspect that the product failed to meet any product specifications at the time of manufacture.Although the reported problem was not confirmed through a visual or functional evaluation, factors contributing to the reported symptom may have been associated with an internal connector associated with the reusable component of the tensioner.Based on the investigation, no containment or corrective action is recommended or required at this time.Should any additional information be received, the complaint will be reopened.The failure mode will continue to be closely monitored through complaint investigation and trended through post-market surveillance activities.H10- additional information.D10- concomitant medical products.

B5: event description.H11: the information received by the manufacturer has been re-evaluated for mdr reporting and it was determined that this case does not meet the threshold for reporting and is a non-reportable event.Only the gap assessment was performed manually, which is an option within cori.The rest of the procedure was completed with the robot; therefore this event does not qualify as a change from a robotic assisted surgery to a full manual procedure.If further details are provided confirming the occurrence of a reportable event, our files will be updated accordingly and a further report submitted outlining both the event details and our investigations performed.
