Stealth Autoguide Tracker recall

Why was Stealth Autoguide Tracker recalled?

A tracker that holds and guides neurosurgical surgical instruments may be subject to separation/weld failure, where the tracker connects to the instrument tube. If a weld separation occurs and a navigation inaccuracy is experienced, it may result in prolonged procedure and tissue injury. Per 11/24/21 firm email: The Bundle Autoguide Reg Kit does not have a model number. The Bundle Autoguide Reg Kit is internal terminology and not visible to the customer and are used as sales and shipping configuration only. When this sales bundle is chosen by an internal Medtronic Sales Representative the devices included in the bundle are individually packaged and labeled and sent to the customer in a single shipment. The devices included in the bundle are ordered, packed, and shipped as individual medical devices with unique model numbers, which is the reason that the Autoguide Tracker (28248) and the Stealth Autoguide Basic Instrument Kit (9736188) are the only part numbers subject to this FCA.
