Description

Stryker Mako Vizadisc Hip Procedure Tracking Kit

Reason

Specific lots of the Vizadisc Knee Procedure Tracking Kit and Vizadisc Hip Procedure Tracking Kit have the potential to be damaged on the Vizadisc reflective material causing an inability to be detected by the camera.

Action

On about 07/24/2018, Stryker sent letters to all their consignees via URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE REMOVAL letter. Instructions for risk mitigation included to perform a visual inspection the discs during pre-surgery setup as the defect can be recognized due to apparent discoloration and in the event that a Vizadisc is damaged, risk may be mitigated by testing the Vizadiscs by attaching them to the probes and arrays during pre-surgery setup, as per Stryker's recommendations in "Surgical Technique Guide." This provides an opportunity for the user to show each instrument to the camera after assembly to confirm that all discs are detectable. Additional instructions included to inform all individuals of the recall within the organization, complete and return the enclosed Recall Notification Business Reply Form, and arrange for to return all affected devices to Stryker in Mahwah, NJ. On about 11/27/2018, Stryker initiated an expansion of the recall and notified customers via "UPDATE URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE REMOVAL" letter. Instructions are the same as in the original notification letter.
