Reason/Issue KLS Martin Germany discovered internally an issue with the NHP (Natural Head Positioning) in IPS CaseDesigner. When adjusting the NHP by a large number of rotations (>15 rotation steps), the NHP adjustments suffer from a numerical instability and the visualisation is distorted. The issue is identified as a bug in the software. If not detected during the planning phase could lead to a longer surgery.

No clinical complaints or incidences were reported on this issue.
Recall Action Product Defect Correction
