Event Description
Medtronic received information regarding a navigation system being used in an electrode and probe placement procedure (deep brain stimulation (dbs) procedure).It was reported that during stimulation of the microelectrode the patient was having response on the right side of his body when there should have been responses on the left side of his body.Discussions were held between the neurologist and the neurosurgeon.During discussions, it was noted that on the navigation system the system showed they were in navigation mode for the right side of the body and not the left.But when they switched back to the planning screen on the navigation system, the system switched the screen to the left side of the body.They were able to replicate this issue multiple times, and there were multiple attempts to troubleshoot without success.The procedure was aborted due to safety concerns to the patient.The neurosurgeon ordered a ct scan stat for the patient and then when to the recovery room.The ct scan noted blood and free air in the patient's third ventricle.The alleged inaccuracy was noted with a 5mm difference between plan 1 and plan 2 of navigation.There was a delay to the procedure of less than an hour.
