When using affected curette and software, there is a discrepancy between the actual curette tip location and the location displayed on navigation systems intended for use during surgical procedures of the Ear Nose and Throat (ENT) and ENT skull base surgery, which may cause delayed/prolonged surgery, cerebrospinal fluid leak, visual impairment, or skull base structural damage.
Suction Instruments were incorrectly calibrated so they may not meet the system accuracy specification for visual verification of device location in the patient anatomy. If the surgeon does not detect the accuracy error, this could lead to an intraprocedural delay, a potential for reversible tissue damage or damage to the carotid artery, CSF leak, or damage to optic nerve.
The firm became aware that three (3) lots of the NAV Suction Instruments contain calibration issues causing incorrect tip orientation display in the system.
