Synced live from the FDA openFDA API.
There has been an increased amount in reported complaints consistently describing leaking from the handpiece during use.
Due to nonconforming products being inadvertently distributed.
Stryker identified non-conforming instruments that are components of the Tritanium X TL sets. The firm found non-conformances with the TL Inserter, TL Draw Rod, Tube Set/Syringe Adapter Assembly, and Syringe Plunger that could lead to device failure during a procedure.
The firm has become aware of a potential problem that their Catheters may break/fracture and/or kink/bend if improperly removed from the packaging/dispenser hoop or during catheter use.
The heated tube sets were consistently leaking and detaching from the cassette.
There were two potential interference conditions identified with the way the tubing set attaches to the inserter.
Stryker Sustainability Solutions is recalling the Fuhrman Pleural & Pneumopericardial Drainage Set due to receiving complaints that it broke off in the pleural cavity while inserting the device into the patient.
Stryker has received a complaint from customers relating to a fracture during the use of the Specialty Audible Torque Wrench in surgery.
Tritanium Patella Inserter Instrument fracture during implantation. .
Stryker Osteosynthesis has become aware that LEFT GAMMA3 nails are marked as right nails.
Multiple complaints have reported the hex tip of the torque wrench fracturing during final tightening.
Paramed Corporation (d/b/a, Descent Control Systems), a manufacturer and distributor of patient transport devices, merged with an affiliate of Stryker Corporation in August 2009. As part of the due diligence process, Paramed's powered Mobility Offers Versatility (MV) chair was reviewed to identify potential compliance issues in relation to product documentation and classification.
The gravity steam, Ethylene Oxide (EO) and STERRAD 100S sterilization methods are being removed from the "Instructions for Use"; due to the firm's evaluation that identified original validation was not done at worst case conditions.
Stryker Spine has received reports that after sterilization but prior to surgery, cracks were noticed at the tantalum marker / PEI tube interface. This can likely be attributed to differences in the rate of thermal expansion between the markers and the sleeve during the sterilization cycle.
All of the failures lead to the patient receiving less medication than intended. Certain lots of the pain pump have a high failure rate associated with a cracked port housing which leads to internal or external leaks. Some lots have a high failure rate associated with E2 errors.
The instructions for use (IFU) has been revised for health care professionals. The indication for use has been changed to remove site specific pain management. The firm has revised the warning to not use the pump around joint spaces. A warning has been added regarding the use of the pump with anticoagulants in epidural applications. A special reminder to users to always evaluate the potential
Literature did not include the design change to a smaller cannulation diameter.
The catheter may break when removed from the body, or the catheter may have kinks or be occluded such that the patient will not receive the intended quantity of medication.
An electronic failure during preparation of the unit, or during patient use, may cause the pump to shut down.
Potential Breakage: Stryker Orthopaedics became aware that there is the potential for the tip of the AxSOS Screwdriver and the AxSOS Torque Limiter to break.
There is a potential for the pump to overinfuse.
Stryker Trauma has become aware that five lots of the Gamma3 Set Screwdriver have hexagon tips that were not hardened to specification. If the screwdriver tip were to deform intra-operatively, the correct positioning of the set screw would not be possible, which could lead to lateral or medial migration of the lag-screw.
Device for which sterility may be compromised as evidenced by a loss of package integrity.
Stryker Orthopaedics became aware that when attempting to position the Triathlon Femoral Sizer, the pre-setting may slip from l (left knee) to R (right knee) and vice verse intraoperatively.
Product sterility may have been compromised by an inadequate package seal.
