Class II

da Vinci 5 Surgeon Console Viewer Display, ASSY, DV5 CONSOLE, IS5000, Part Number: 380730-45

Robotic-assisted surgical system has Viewer Display manufactured with outdated firmware, may result in loss of one display-loss of 3D surgical field (depth perception) but 2D maintained, or loss of both displays-complete visualization loss, without fault, instruments remain active, could lead to instrument contact with tissue, resulting in injury/bleeding; may require alternate surgical modality.

Class II

Brand Name: Da Vinci Product Name: da Vinci X, Xi Surgical System, & da Vinci 5 Surgical System Model/Catalog Number: IS4000; IS4200; IS5000 Software Version: N/A Product Description: The da Vinci Xi, X, and da Vinci 5 surgical systems each consist of three main components: the Surgeon Console (SC), the Vision Cart (VC), and the Patient Cart (PC). The PC is the operative component of the system, and its primary function is to support the instrument arms and camera arm. Each system have four Universal Surgical Manipulators (USMs) also known as arms, which allow the surgeon to control up to three instruments and an endoscope simultaneously to perform surgical tasks (e.g. cutting, suturing, tissue approximation) in a variety of procedures. As the surgeon moves the hand controls within the console, the PC moves the robotic instruments within the patient in a corresponding manner. The da Vinci system and its software are designed such that instruments motion precisely tracks the motion inputs from the hand controls during surgery. Component: The affected part based on this recall, 380647-xx, USM, is a sub component of da Vinci Surgical Instrument

Due to a software implementation error that allowed instruments arms failing an important diagnostic test to remain in clinical use. This test was supposed to be used to detect Universal Surgical Manipulator insertion axis ball screws that exhibit the symptoms of being bent and misaligned which is a precursor to potential ball screw fatigue failure/fraction

Class II

Brand Name: Ion Endoluminal System Product Name: Ion Vision Probe Bag Model/Catalog Number: 490127 Software Version: N/A Product Description: The Ion Endoluminal System is a robotically assisted platform for minimally invasive peripheral lung biopsy. Ion consists of a System Cart and Controller that are used to navigate a flexible Catheter within the pulmonary tract using endoscopic visualization for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The Ion Fully Articulating Catheter (referred to as the Catheter) consists of the housing, sensor, input discs, shaft, tool channel, and tip. The Catheter is installed on the carriage of the arm. The Catheter is provided non-sterile and is a multi-use device. The Ion Peripheral Vision Probe (referred to as the Vision Probe or VP) is an endoscope that is compatible with, and inserted into, the Catheter tool channel. The VP provides direct visualization of the patient s airways during navigation. The VP attaches to the arm and has a collar that is rotated and then pulled to release it from the arm. The VP is provided non-sterile and is a multi-use device that can be used up to 5 times. The Vision Probe Bag (referred to as VPB) installs over the Instrument Arm for temporary storage of the VP when it is not inserted within the Catheter tool channel. The VPB is a single-use device provided sterile (folded within a pouch) by Ethylene Oxide (EO) sterilization method. Refer to HHE for additional details. Component: N/A

Due to probe bags that may have a compromised or incomplete sterile pouch seal.
