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.

A Zoox vehicle (Vehicle 1) in autonomous mode was traveling eastbound on [XXX] past [XXX] in San Francisco when it began to slow gradually for a nearly stopped passenger car (Vehicle 2) ahead in the same lane. The driver of Vehicle 2 then began reversing without using turn signals. The Zoox vehicle braked to a stop, and its operator disengaged autonomy, while vehicle 2 continued to reverse, steering left, seemingly attempting to pull into a parking spot in the curb lane adjacent to the stopped Zoox vehicle. During this maneuver, the right rear corner of Vehicle 2 swiped the left front corner of the Zoox vehicle. The Zoox vehicle sustained no damage, while Vehicle 2 incurred minor damage. No injuries were reported, and law enforcement was not notified.

Reported narrative: IT WAS REPORTED THAT DURING A DA VINCI-ASSISTED HYSTERECTOMY SURGERY, THE MONOPOLAR CURVED SCISSORS (MCS) TIP COVER ACCESSORY DEVELOPED A HOLE, WHICH LED TO THERMAL INJURY OF THE SMALL INTESTINE. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE THE SURGEON WAS DISSECTING THE UTERUS ON THE LEFT SIDE. AS THE TIP OF THE MCS INSTRUMENT WAS POSITIONED AGAINST THE UTERUS, A PORTION OF THE SMALL INTESTINE CAME INTO CONTACT WITH THE INSTRUMENT'S SHAFT, WHICH IS NORMALLY INSULATED BY THE MCS TIP COVER ACCESSORY. DUE TO THE HOLE NEAR THE ORANGE MARKER ON THE MCS TIP COVER ACCESSORY, A BURN APPROXIMATELY 1 CM IN DIAMETER OCCURRED ON THE INTESTINE. THE SURGEON PROMPTLY SUTURED THE AFFECTED AREA TO PREVENT RUPTURE, AND A GASTROINTESTINAL SURGEON WAS CONSULTED TO EVALUATE THE INJURY. THE ASSESSMENT CONFIRMED THAT THE INTERVENTION WAS SUFFICIENT. THE AFFECTED MCS INSTRUMENT WAS REMOVED AND THE MCS TIP COVER ACCESSORY WAS REPLACED. NO ELECTRICAL ARCING WAS OBSERVED AT THE TIME OF THE EVENT, AND THE PROCEDURE WAS COMPLETED ROBOTICALLY. THE SURGEON ASSESSED THE IMPACT ON THE PATIENT'S OUTCOME AS MINIMAL, AND NO POST-OPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS WERE REPORTED.

HTTPS://DOI.ORG/10.1111/OS.70174 SUMMARY OBJECTIVES: CAGE RETROPULSION (CR) IS A COMMON COMPLICATION FOLLOWING POSTERIOR LUMBAR INTERBODY FUSION (PLIF). SYMPTOMATIC PATIENTS WITH CR OFTEN REQUIRE REVISION SURGERY. HOWEVER, THERE IS A LACK OF LITERATURE SUPPORTING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONSERVATIVE TREATMENT FOR CR. THIS STUDY COMPARES CLINICAL AND RADIOGRAPHIC OUTCOMES BETWEEN CONSERVATIVE TREATMENT AND REVISION SURGERY IN PATIENTS WITH CR AFTER PLIF. METHODS: A TOTAL OF 55 PATIENTS WITH CR AFTER PLIF TREATED AT OUR INSTITUTION BETWEEN 2016 AND 2023 WERE RETROSPECTIVELY REVIEWED; P OSTOPERATIVE RADIOGRAPHIC DATA OF FOLLOW-UP WERE USED TO DIAGNOSE CR. CLINICAL OUTCOMES WERE ASSESSED BEFORE THERAPY AND AT THE FINAL FOLLOW-UP USING THE VISUAL ANALOG SCALE (VAS) FOR LOWER BACK PAIN AND LEG PAIN, OSWESTRY DISABILITY INDEX (ODI) SCORES, AND JAPANESE ORTHOPEDIC ASSOCIATION 29 (JOA-29) SCORES.
