173 medical device reports received by FDA name the brand "Stealthstation Tria Navigation System" (neurological stereotaxic instrument); the manufacturer given most often on reports is Medtronic Navigation; received from December 2010 to August 2019. Brand names are as the reporter or manufacturer wrote them, so one product can appear under several spellings.
0 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, and none in the 12 months before. FDA releases MAUDE data monthly; reports can arrive months after an event, so the newest months grow in later releases. The event types recorded are malfunction (90.8%), injury (8.7%) and death (0.6%); across all neurological stereotaxic instrument reports (product code HAW) death is recorded in 0.2% and malfunction in 92.2%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.
The device problems coded most often are device stops intermittently (12.7%), device operates differently than expected (12.1%) and application interface becomes non-functional or program exits abnormally (11.6%). The patient problems coded most often are no patient involvement, iatrogenic source and spinal column injury. FDA states that "MDR data alone cannot be used to establish rates of events, evaluate a change in event rates over time or compare event rates between devices. The number of reports cannot be interpreted or used in isolation to reach conclusions about the existence, severity, or frequency of problems associated with devices." It adds that the reporting system "has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data."
