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.

da Vinci Surgical System — Injury report filed with FDA (MAUDE). A MAUDE report does not establish that the device caused the outcome. Reported narrative: A LITERATURE DESCRIBED A STUDY AIMED TO EVALUATE SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE OUTCOMES OF 22 PATIENTS FOLLOWING POST-CHEMOTHERAPY ROBOT-ASSISTED RETROPERITONEAL UNILATERAL LYMPH NODE DISSECTION (PC-RRPLND) FOR NON-SEMINOMATOUS GERM CELL TUMORS (NSGCTS) AT A HIGH-VOLUME CANCER CENTER. AMONG THE PATIENTS INCLUDED IN THE STUDY, AN INTRAOPERATIVE COMPLICATION (VENA CAVA INJURY) WAS RECORDED, WITHOUT NEEDING PERIOPERATIVE BLOOD TRANSFUSION. NONE OF THE PATIENTS EXPERIENCED LATE POST-OPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS. RETROGRADE EJACULATION IS CONFIRMED TO BE ONE OF THE MOST COMMON COMPLICATIONS OF PC-RRPLND. THERE WERE NO DA VINCI DEVICE ISSUES REPORTED IN THE ARTICLE. MULTIPLE REQUESTS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FROM THE DESIGNATED AUTHOR WERE MADE, BUT NO RESPONSE HAS BEEN RECEIVED.

da Vinci Surgical System — Injury report filed with FDA (MAUDE). A MAUDE report does not establish that the device caused the outcome. Reported narrative: IT WAS REPORTED THAT DURING A DA VINCI-ASSISTED LIVER RESECTION PROCEDURE USING A HARMONIC ACE INSTRUMENT, THE BLADE BROKE, RESULTING IN POOR CUTTING AND A FRAGMENT FALLING INSIDE THE PATIENT. THE SURGEON WAS CUTTING THE LIVER PARENCHYMA WHEN A PIECE OF THE INSTRUMENT'S BLADE BROKE OFF INSIDE THE PATIENT. THE BLADE PIECE WAS RETRIEVED WITH A LAPAROSCOPIC FORCEPS. THE PROCEDURE WAS CONTINUED WITH A BACKUP HARMONIC ACE INSTRUMENT. THE STAFF CONFIRMED ALL PIECES WERE RETRIEVED BY CHECKING THE FRAGMENT OF THE DAMAGED BLADE AND ALIGNING IT WITH THE HARMONIC ACE INSTRUMENT BODY. THE PROCEDURE WAS COMPLETED ROBOTICALLY WITH NO REPORT OF INJURY.

FLATTENING THE LEARNING CURVE ¿ EARLY EXPERIENCE OF ROBOTIC-ASSISTED PEDICLE SCREW PLACEMENT IN SPINE SURGERY. JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDICS, 57, 49¿54. HTTPS://DOI.ORG/10.1016/J.JOR.2024.06.011. SUMMARY: AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: TO DETERMINE ACCURACY OF PEDICLE SCREWS PLACED BY FREEHAND, FLUOROSCOPY-ASSISTANCE AND ROBOTIC-ASSISTANCE WITH INTRAOPERATIVE IMAGE ACQUISITION, AND DETERMINE THE PRESENCE OF LEARNING CURVE IN ROBOTIC SPINE SURGERY IN A PROSPECTIVE SINGLE CENTRE STUDY. MATERIALS AND METHODS: IN A PROSPECTIVE STUDY, A TOTAL OF 1120 PEDICLE SCREWS WERE PLACED IN FREEHAND GROUP (N = 175), 1250 SCREWS WERE PLACED IN FLUOROSCOPY ASSISTED GROUP (N = 172), AND 1225 SCREWS WERE INSERTED IN ROBOTIC-ASSISTED GROUP(N = 180). SURGICAL PARAMETERS AND SCREW ACCURACY WERE ANALYZED BETWEEN THE THREE GROUPS. THE PREOPERATIVE PLAN WAS OVERLAPPED WITH POST OPERATIVE O-ARM SCAN TO DETERMINE IF THE SCREWS WERE EXECUTED AS PLANNED. RESULTS: THE FREQUENCY OF CLINICALLY ACCEPTABLE SCREW PLACEMENT (GERTZBEIN AND ROBBINS GRADE A, B) IN THE FREEHAND, FLUOROSCOPY-ASSISTED, AND ROBOTIC-ASSIST

Reported narrative: A RETROSPECTIVE, COHORT STUDY WHICH DESCRIBED A COMPARISON BETWEEN ROBOTIC SINGLE-SITE (RSS) AND MULTIPORT LAPAROSCOPIC (MPL) SURGERY, WAS SUMMARIZED IN A LITERATURE ARTICLE. THE AIM OF THE STUDY WAS TO COMPARE RSS SURGERY TO MULTIPORT LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY IN TERMS OF SURGICAL OUTCOMES AND OVERALL SURVIVAL FOR PATIENTS WITH EARLY ENDOMETRIAL CANCER. THE STUDY OCCURRED FROM MARCH 2014 TO DECEMBER 2022 AND INCLUDED A TOTAL OF 421 PATIENTS OF WHICH 146 UNDERWENT RSS SURGERY WITH A MEDIAN AGE OF APPROXIMATELY 51.95 YEARS AND A MEDIAN BMI OF 24.82. ALL PATIENTS WERE FEMALE AS THE STUDY INVOLVED ENDOMETRIAL CANCER PATIENTS. THE ARTICLE NOTED THAT DURING THESE SURGERIES, PERIOPERATIVE COMPLICATIONS OCCURRED INCLUDING: ONE CASE OF AN INCISIONAL HERNIA, ONE CASE OF LYMPHOCELE, ONE CASE OF RECTUM TEAR, ONE OCCURRENCE OF VAGINAL CUFF BLEEDING, ONE CASE OF VAGINAL CUFF DISRUPTION, AND ONE CASE OF VAGINAL CUFF INFECTION.
