Event or Problem Description
Medtronic received information regarding a guidance system being used during a spinal procedure.It was reported that prior to the procedure; there was a boot up issue.A dell windows restart and configuration.During the procedure, issues with spin upload and robotic inaccuracy were noted.When trying to import the first spin from the medtronic imaging system, using a usb to transfer to guidance system, it was initially uploaded with correct patient name but there was incorrect anatomy (aka incorrect scan) as detected by the fellow as there was an incorrect l1 fracture presentation.They re-attempted uploading using the same usb, which was then imported that same incorrect scan, but under a different patient name.At which points they tried an empty universal serial bus (usb) with no prior navigation or guidance system files, on the off chance the scan was being corrupted on the device.At which points the mobile viewing station (mvs) errored "there are no removable devices on this system" on all ports.They tried again with a second empty usb which resulted in same error temporarily but eventually showed up.Due to the concern, it might be to do with these usb ports, t hey then tried using a cable with a "direct" import and this was the correct scan under correct patient name.They then proceeded with sending the surgical arm to the first trajectory at which point a significant (10 centimeter (cm) robotic inaccuracy was noticed.After completing an accuracy check with the probe, it was determined navigation was accurate but the robot arm itself wasn't.They re-did a snapshot to confirm no navigation inaccuracy.Due to the fact no shoulder shift had been detected by the system and no physical shift of the patient had been noticed, they were worried such a significant shift was due to the "weird" upload process of the scan.As such per the surgeon's decision, they restarted the process (unmounting, new kit/nav codes, creating new case, new 3define, new snapshot, new spin) and then immediately used the cable and "direct" import option.At this point, the correct patient and scan was imported, and first trajectory appeared on track.After 4 screws were inserted, another spin as normal was performed.Screws were checked as per protocol and 1 screw was detected to have shifted medially and did not match the robotic plan.That 1 screw was then removed and replaced under a non-medtronic imaging system.A 4th spin was then taken to confirm final placement (per surgeon's decision despite extra radiation).The patient was noted to have no injury and surgical delay was 2.5 hours.Additional information was received.It was reported that it was estimated that the screw (t12 on the right) was about 2 millimeters (mm) medial - enough to breach the medial canal.It was not measured exactly since it was removed and replaced.
