Every incident, injury and recall on file, from the national registries that publish them. Search a maker, a model, a town or a reference number — or narrow by what happened. Each record is the registry's own text, reproduced without rewriting, with the reference that locates it at the source. Registries count different things, so a total is a count of FILINGS and never a measure of how dangerous something is. How the record was collected.

ExcelsiusGPS — Injury report filed with FDA (MAUDE). A MAUDE report does not establish that the device caused the outcome. Reported narrative: CENTROIDS WERE PLACED IN THE CENTER OF THE BODIES WITH THE SURGEON'S GUIDANCE. THE MERGE AT ALL LEVELS SHOWED A LARGE SHIFT OF THE VERTEBRAL BODIES IN THE AP VIEW. THE DRR FILE WAS NOTICEABLY A FEW CM TO THE RIGHT OF THE X-RAY ALL LEVELS. SOME TROUBLESHOOTING WAS PERFORMED, BUT THE ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED. THE SURGEON DECIDED TO PLACE CAGES WITHOUT NAVIGATION.

ExcelsiusGPS — Injury report filed with FDA (MAUDE). A MAUDE report does not establish that the device caused the outcome. Reported narrative: THE CASE WAS SCHEDULED AS PREOP CT WORKFLOW FOR POSTERIOR PERCUTANEOUS SCREW PLACEMENT WITH THE ROBOT AT L4 AND L5 FOLLOWING AN L4/5 LLIF. THE SCAN UPLOADED WITH NO ISSUES AND WAS CONFIRMED TO BE TO PROTOCOL. THE SURGEON PLANNED SCREWS AT L4 AND L5 WHILE THE PATIENT WAS REPOSITIONED PRONE. DRB AND SM WERE PLACED IN PSIS IN STANDARD ORIENTATION WITH CAMERA AT THE FOOT. THE SM WAS REGISTERED PRIOR TO X-RAY COMING INTO THE FIELD. IMAGES WERE INITIALLY OBTAINED FOR L4 AND L5, BUT THE MERGE WAS UNSUCCESSFUL - WAGGING UP AND DOWN IN THE LATERAL IMAGES AND SLIGHT ROCKING IN THE AP. L3 AND S1 WERE ADDED IN THE WORKFLOW PAGE AND "DUMMY" SCREWS WERE QUICKLY PLANNED AT L3 AND S1. IMAGES WERE OBTAINED FOR L3 AND S1 WITH THE SAME RESULT - UNSUCCESSFUL MERGE WITH WHAT SEEMED LIKE EQUAL MOVEMENT WHEN VERIFYING. NEW SHOTS WERE THEN OBTAINED FOR L4 AND L5 AND ONCE AGAIN WE COULD NOT GET A MERGE, WE WERE CONFIDENT IN ACCEPTING. THE SURGEON BAILED TO TRADITIONAL JAMSHID PLACEMENT, ALREADY FRUSTRATED WITH HIS EXPERIENCES OF THE DAY, ALTHOUGH FLUORO WORKFLOW WAS OFFERED TO HIM.

THE DRR WAS LESS THAN SUFFICIENT AS FAR AS QUALITY/BEING ABLE TO MERGE WITH OUR FLUORO SHOTS. OUR FLUORO SHOTS I THOUGHT WERE GREAT, BUT ULTIMATELY HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO GET A MERGE. WE WENT BACK ADJUSTED THE WINDOWING ON THE CT. THAT DIDN'T HELP. "DEEP SEARCH" AND "AUTO MERGE" WERE ATTEMPTED SEVERAL TIMES AFTER MOVING THE DRR INTO WHAT I FELT/COULD MAKE OUT TO BE THE MATCHING ANATOMY OF THE FLUORO SHOTS. THERE WAS SOME WEIRD BOX IN THE DRR THAT I COULD NOT EXPLAIN EITHER.

Reported narrative: C3-T4 OPEN POSTERIOR CERVICO-THORACIC FUSION. 1.1R4 SOFTWARE. PRE-OP CT WORKFLOW. 12" FLUOROSCOPY. CT-SCAN LOADED AND SCREWS PREPLANNED. HE ONLY PLANNED TO USE EGPS TO PUT IN SCREWS AT T2-T4. PRIOR TO THE SURGERY, THE PATIENT HAD A FRACTURE AT C7-T1 CAUSING THE PREVIOUS POSTERIOR SCREWS TO PULL OUT AT T1-T2. DR. (B)(6) PUT THE ANGLED SPINOUS PROCESS CLAMP ON T5 AND DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF SKIN THE ANGLED SPINOUS PROCESS CLAMP WAS POINTING STRAIGHT UP. THUS NOT ALLOWING THE C-ARM INTO TO POSITION FOR REGISTRATION IMAGED. FOLLOWING THAT MISTAKE HE PUT A SHORTER SPINOUS PROCESS CLAMP ON THE SP. SM WAS ON THE SAME CLAMP. THIS ALLOWED THE C-ARM TO MOVE UNDER THE BED WITHOUT HITTING THE MAYFIELD ATTACHMENT HOWEVER, THE LATERAL SHOT WAS DIFFICULT TO VISUALIZE ON THE C-ARM. DR. (B)(6) HAD A DIFFICULT TIME IDENTIFYING EACH LEVEL DUE TO THE MINIMAL CONTRAST OF THE C-ARM. THE SETTING WERE ADJUSTED TO BETTER THE IMAGE ON THE C-ARM BUT THE MERGE WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE MERGE LOOKED LIKE IT HAD FOUND THE AN IMAGE ON THE CT THAT WAS IN AN OBLIQUE AP VIEW. FOR THE LATERAL, IT COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE CORRECT LEVEL.

ExcelsiusGPS — Injury report filed with FDA (MAUDE). A MAUDE report does not establish that the device caused the outcome. Reported narrative: CASE WAS T10-PELVIS. INTRA-OP WORKFLOW. FIRST TWO REGISTRATIONS (L2-S2 AND S2) WENT VERY SMOOTH WITH NO ISSUES. THIRD SPIN WAS T10-L1. SURGEON PLACED SCREWS T10-T12L. WHEN TRYING TO MOVE THE EE CLOSER TO THE ANATOMY THE ARM WOULD NOT ADVANCE WHEN SURGEON BRACELET WAS ENGAGED. THEN WHEN THE SURGEON TRIED TO RESETTLE THE ARM ONTO TRAJECTORY BY USING THE FOOT PEDAL THE ARM DRIFTED INFERIOR AND DID NOT COME BACK ON TRAJECTORY. I CHECKED THE LOADCELL AND ALL VALUES WERE STEADY AT 0. WE REMOVED THE EE AND ADJUSTED THE DRAPE THEN REPLACED THE EE. TRIED TO NAVIGATE TO A TRAJECTORY AND THE ARM DRIFTED THE SAME WAY. I THEN TRIED A MOTION RESET THAT DID NOT WORK. I THEN TRIED A HARD SHUTDOWN AND THAT DID NOT WORK EITHER. THE SURGEON THEN FREEHANDED THE LAST THREE SCREWS. I REMOVED THE ROBOT FROM THE OR AND REHOMED THE ARM AND THAT SEEMED TO FIX IT BUT COULD NOT CONFIRM DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO NAVIGATE TO A TRAJECTORY WITH THE EE. PLEASE SEND AN FSE OUT TO CONFIRM THERE ARE NO HARDWARE ISSUES CAUSING THIS ISSUE.

ExcelsiusGPS — Injury report filed with FDA (MAUDE). A MAUDE report does not establish that the device caused the outcome. Reported narrative: THIS EVENT OCCURRED WITH THE RIGHT STN LEAD BEING OFF BY MORE THAN 3 MM ON THE FIRST PASS, ESSENTIALLY FALLING INTO THE SAME TRAJECTORY ON THE SECOND PASS, NOT SHIFTING ENOUGH ON THE THIRD PASS, AND FINALLY BEING PLACED IN AN ACCEPTABLE AREA ON THE FOURTH PASS. THE SECOND PASS ONLY THE TARGET WAS ADJUSTED, THE THIRD THE ENTRY WAS ADJUSTED WITH A SLIGHT ADJUSTMENT TO THE TARGET, AND THE FINAL PASS BOTH THE ENTRY AND TARGETS WERE ADJUSTED AGAIN. THERE WAS A LOT OF SPECULATION AS TO WHY THE TRAJECTORY WAS DEVIATING TO SUCH A HIGH DEGREE, THE INITIAL SUSPECT WAS THE MERGE ACCURACY, BUT UPON THE PLACEMENT OF THE LEFT LEAD IT WAS FOUND TO BE LESS THAN 0.9MM OFF AXIS AND VERY CLOSE TO THE PLAN. DR. VARDIMAN'S HYPOTHESIS WAS SOMETHING ANATOMICAL CAUSING THE DEVIATION OR SOMETHING MECHANICAL WITH THE ROBOT. REGARDLESS I BELIEVE THAT IT WARRANTS FURTHER INVESTIGATION I HAVE ALREADY UPLOADED THE CASE.

ExcelsiusGPS — Injury report filed with FDA (MAUDE). A MAUDE report does not establish that the device caused the outcome. Reported narrative: WHEN GOING TO VERIFY THE DILATOR (THE ONLY INTERBODY INSTRUMENT THAT THE SURGEON USES FOR TLIFS) WE VERIFIED OFF THE PURPLE T HANDLE ARRAY. THIS DID NOT WORK; IT SHOWED 2 SOLID DOTS AS IT WAS SEEING THE INSTRUMENTS AND VERIFICATION WOULD NOT FAIL OR BE SUCCESSFUL IT DID NOT POPULATE A RED FAILURE OR A GREEN CHECK. I THEN PROCEEDED TO ASK THE TECH TO CHANGE THE SPHERES TO THE BLUE STRAIGHT HANDLE ARRAY TO TRY AND VERIFY DILATOR OFF THAT, THAT FAILED AS WELL. WE THEN TRIED CHANGING ASSIGNED INSTRUMENTS, THIS FAILED TOO. WE THEN WENT BACK TO SCREW INSTRUMENTS AND VERIFIED HIGH SPEED DRILL, THEN WENT BACK TO INTERBODY AND TRIED TO VERIFY DILATOR AGAIN STILL FAILED. AFTER THIS I SUGGESTED WE TRY VERIFYING DILATOR OFF END EFFECTOR. WHEN TRYING TO VERIFY OFF END EFFECTOR SAME THING, IT FAILED. WE THEN RESORTED TO A HARD SHUT DOWN, WHICH IN TURN RESULTED IN US GETTING A RED REHOMING ERROR AND MOTION SELF-CHECK INCOMPLETE. TO POTENTIALLY AVOID HAVING TO REHOME THE ARM, I DID ANOTHER HARD SHUT DOWN, BUT WE STILL GOT THOSE SAME ERROR MESSAGES UPON BOOTING BACK UP. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO REHOME, IT FAILED 4 TIMES AT THIS POINT THE PATIENT WAS IN THE ROOM, AND THEY WERE READY TO POSITION. WE HAD TO

Reported narrative: THE PATIENT HAD A PLANNED SINGLE POSITION LATERAL DECUBITUS SURGERY FOR PEDICLE SCREW FIXATION AND INTERBODY FUSION FROM L4-S1. ROBOTIC GUIDANCE WAS PLANNED FOR PLACEMENT OF PEDICLE SCREWS FROM L4-S1 (6 SCREWS) USING THE GLOBUS EXCELSIUS GPS SYSTEM. TWO SURGEONS TRAINED TO USE THE GLOBUS EXCELSIUS GPS SYSTEM, TWO GLOBUS REPS AND A VASCULAR SURGEON WERE PRESENT DURING THE PROCEDURE. THE ICT (INTRA-OPERATIVE REGISTRATION DEVICE (REFERENCE FRAME)) IS PLACED IN THE ILIAC CREST TO ASSIST WITH IMAGE MERGE. A DYNAMIC REFERENCE BASE (DRB (MOTION CHECKER)) IS ALSO PLACED IN THE ILIAC CREST AND ACTS AS SURVEILLANCE MARKER FOR REAL-TIME INTRAOPERATIVE ACCURACY. THE ROBOTIC SOFTWARE USES AN ALGORITHM TO REGISTER INTRAOPERATIVE FLUOROSCOPY SCAN IMAGES LEVEL BY LEVEL (AP & LATERAL) AND PERFORMS A 2D-3D MERGE WITH A PRE-OPERATIVE CT SCAN. THIS REGISTRATION IS INTENDED TO ENSURE THAT THE RADIOGRAPHIC IMAGES INDICATING THE INTENDED LOCATION OF SURGERY AND THE ACTUAL PATIENT POSITION IN THE O.R.
