Some Canister Scanning Labels used to calibrate the Triton Canister System have a color variance. Based on a comprehensive analysis, blood loss estimates obtained using these Canister Scanning Labels may result in lower than expected results.
Gauss Surgical is updating the Instructions for Use (IFU) for our Triton Sponge System in order to clarify proper technique for handling sponges and the calibration placard.

Stryker Instruments and Stryker Leibinger GmbH & Co. KG are voluntarily recalling certain serial numbers Thoracic Pedicle Feelers that are used in conjunction with the Stryker¿ Navigation System because the settings on the machine were higher than intended. This change led to increased energy directed onto the tip of the Thoracic Pedicle Feeler which caused material degradation where the laser marks exist. There is the potential for the tip of the Thoracic Pedicle Feeler to break.

The Piston Head can become separated from the Delivery Piston, blocking the injection assembly Valve resulting in a cement backflow towards the injector handle. Potential for delay in surgery if additional cement needs to be prepared for the injection procedure.
A variation in flute depth on the routers was observed. The variation in flute depth may cause the routers to be more susceptible to breakages. Risk to Health: Injury to critical soft tissue requiring surgical intervention may occur.
Stryker Instruments initiated a voluntary recall of specific lots of Round Fluted Burs, due to tarnishing or corrosion which may be present on the recalled burs and could result in a foreign body reaction (inflammation) necessitating surgical intervention.

Due to the buildup of grease within the hose and motor, the product may require multiple attempts to start. The grease may also migrate into the attachment end of the motor. There is a negligible possibility that the orange grease may leak from the attachment end of the motor and contaminate the surgical wound resulting in soft tissue inflammation.
The Spetzler Claw Tip was packaged with the incorrect Tip Sleeve Assembly. The Tip Sleeve Assembly included in the packaging is the incorrect size. Risk to Health: If the Tip Sleeve Assembly does not fit the Spetzler Claw" Tip, a surgical delay may occur while an alternate Tip Sleeve Assembly is retrieved.
