Potential for the Break-Away Femoral Nozzle the applicator tip connecting the cement cartridge, to disassemble or break off during use, can lead to the potential for loss of function of the ACM system and bio-incompatibility due to components falling into surgical site
Not able to achieve desired pressure and not holding pressure result from two different causes which have been reported to occur during initial set-up of the cuff onto the patient, may lead to operative site blood loss, hemorrhage or, in exceedingly rare situations, other major complications
There is a potential for the cuff to leak air leading to a loss of vascular occlusion.
The heated tube sets were consistently leaking and detaching from the cassette.
Issue with the process for detection of leaking Pressure Tourniquet Cuffs (PTC). Leaking PTC devices may result in excessive blood loss requiring surgical or medical intervention or systemic leakage of local anesthetic during Bier Block requiring medical intervention.
Stryker Neurovascular has become aware that some units of Target Nano product do not have the intended stretch resistance. The sutures inside the coil that provide stretch resistance may have been damaged during manufacturing which can lead to an increased occurrence of coil stretching.
When operating the device in high flow mode (40L/min, 15 mmHg) and connecting to a house gas inlet source, within seconds of insufflating the flow rate would drop to 0L/min and the red Check Gas Supply symbol would appear on the display, immediately suspending insufflation.
Sterility may be compromised, as the packaging may have channels in the packaging seal.
Device for which sterility may be compromised as evidenced by a loss of package integrity.
