IN THE USA THIS SAME DEVICE IS REGISTERED WITH REFERENCE 09.23S.CUAR-USA, K19355. PRELIMINARY INVESTIGATION PERFORMED BY MEDACTA NEXTAR PROJECT MANAGER: MEDACTA REPORTED A PROBLEM DURING A NEXTAR KNEE SURGERY WITH THE CASE (B)(4) ON THE FEMUR. VALUES SHOWN IN THE DISTAL CUT SCREEN WERE NOT PLAUSIBLE. THE CASE WAS PLANNED WITH A NEXTAR MYKNEE CUTTING BLOCKS. ANALYSIS 1. THE FEMUR REGISTRATION WITH MYKNEE FAILED A. A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF THE PROCESS INCLUDING QC (QUALITY IMAGES CONTROL) AND RECONSTRUCTION WAS PERFORMED BY THE MYSOLUTION DEPARTMENT. THE CONCLUSION IS THAT THE MYKNEE PROCESS OF THIS CASE DOES NOT SHOW ANY DEVIATIONS FROM THE STANDARD PROCEDURES AND EACH STEP HAS BEEN PERFORMED CORRECTLY. THE OFFICIAL ANALYSIS HAS BEEN SHARED WITH THE COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT. B. SINCE THE ABOVE CONSIDERATION AND THE FACT THAT THE INTRAOPERATIVE PSI REGISTRATION WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL, THE NEXTAR MYKNEE BLOCK WAS NOT PERFECTLY POSITIONED ON THE BONE. 2. IF THE NEXTAR BLOCK IS NOT PLACED CORRECTLY, THE CAMERA HOLDER WILL NOT SIT IN THE PLANNED POSITION, SINCE THE CONTACT PAD DOES NOT PERFECTLY MATCH THE BONE PROFILE, AND THIS WILL REDUCE THE STABILITY. 3. LOG FILES CONFIRM THE PSI-FREE REGISTRATION PROCESS WAS COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLY AND THE BONE WAS CORRECTLY MATCHED TO THE 3D MODEL 4. LOG FILES RECORDED BY THE SYSTEM DURING THE SURGERY IN RELATION TO THE ORIENTATION OF THE DISTAL CUT INDICATES THAT THE CAMERA HAS MOVED DURING THE SURGERY. POSSIBLE FAILURE MODE: A. THERE WERE INITIAL MOVEMENTS AFTER THE PSI-FREE REGISTRATION PHASE, DUE TO THE UNSTABLE POSITION OF THE CAMERA HOLDER, WHICH ALREADY COMPROMISE THE POSITIONING OF THE MICROMETRIC. B. ADDITIONAL MOVEMENT DURING CUT CAUSE BY VIBRATION OF THE SAW CONCLUSION FROM THE LOG FILES AND OUR ANALYSIS THE MOST SUITABLE CAUSE OF THE ISSUE UNDER INVESTIGATION IS THE ACCIDENTAL MOVEMENT OF THE CAMERA THAT LEAD TO A WRONG POSITIONING OF THE MICROMETRIC CUTTING BLOCK AND A WRONG MEASUREMENT DURING THE CUT CHECK. PATIENT MATCH PLANNING REVIEW PERFORMED BY MEDACTA PATIENT MATCH ENGINEER: CASE (B)(4) (LOT 121490K). AS PER YOUR REQUEST, WE ANALYZED EACH STEP OF THE MYKNEE PROCESS; NO ERRORS HAVE BEEN FOUND. OUR ANALYSIS OF THE MYKNEE PROCESS OF THIS CASE FOUND NO DEVIATIONS FROM THE STANDARD PROCEDURES. EACH STEP HAS BEEN PERFORMED CORRECTLY. VISUAL INSPECTION PERFORMED BY MEDACTA PATIENT MATCH MANAGER: NO ANOMALY HAS BEEN FOUND DURING THE CUTTING GUIDES VISUAL INSPECTION. THE CUTTING GUIDES FITTING WAS CORRECT AND THE COUPLING IS CONFIRMED TO BE STABLE AND UNIQUE.
