Manufacturer Narrative

It was reported that the doctor decided to a stryker navigation system with the mako system after being advised against doing so.
Utilizing the stryker navigation system with the mako robot is an off-label use.
The difference in alignment noticed during surgery is therefore due to user error.
The data at this time shows that the rio operated as expected.
No system defect or malfunction is suspected.

Event Description
|
In the 2nd mako/strykernav case (10/31/2017), after making his cuts which were "acceptable" he manually completed the box cut for the ps femur.
He impacted the trial and then noted that there was a fracture on the medial aspect of the femoral condyle.
He then stated that "it didn't look like the box cut was big enough" and ordered an x-ray.
He then opted to use a stryker ts fluted stem (12mm/100mm/ts) and a size 7 rt ts femur.
He repaired the fracture with a screw and finished the knee procedure.
There was a surgical delay of 15 minutes to repair the fracture.
