Event or Problem Description
Medtronic received information regarding a navigation system being used in an unknown procedure.It was reported that none of the disposables were working and the surgeon couldn't trace/track instruments.They switched navigation systems and then two of each instrument and patient trackers and then they finally got the system working.It was unknown if the product was damaged.This issue caused a 20 minute surgical delay.There was no reported impact on patient outcome.Additional information was received.It was reported that the procedure was a functional endoscopic sinus surgery (fess).It was reported that they used both of their systems and tried multiple different trackers.It was likely a mix of user error, potential disposable faults and eventually they found the right combination of products and everything began working.Regarding seeing the instruments in the tracking window: "we could not get them green status.They were red status both the instrument and patient tracker.The instrument would come in and out, but it wouldn¿t calibrate.".
