Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Blue Belt Technologies, Inc. has recalled 56 units of its Real Intelligence CORI RI.KNEE v2.0 TKA (Total Knee Arthroplasty) software, specifically version 2.0 (2.0.0.5). The recall was initiated because the software may miss a critical planning stage during surgeries involving significant knee deformation (outside the range of 3 degrees valgus to 7 degrees varus) when the surgeon uses the posterior condylar axis as a reference. This software defect could lead to improper surgical planning and potential alignment issues during knee replacement procedures. Consumers and healthcare providers should contact the manufacturer or their healthcare provider for further instructions regarding this software error.

Risk

The software error prevents surgeons from seeing a necessary planning stage when operating on patients with significant knee deformities. This missing information could result in incorrect placement or alignment of the knee implant, potentially leading to surgical complications or the need for corrective procedures.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if your surgical facility uses Real Intelligence CORI RI.KNEE v2.0 TKA software version 2.0 (2.0.0.5) with Product Number ROB10299.
  2. Check your software records for UDI (01) 00885556773338 and Lot Numbers 51141585, 51108475, or 51108689 to see if your system is affected.
  3. If you are a patient who recently underwent or is scheduled for a total knee replacement using the CORI system, contact your surgeon or healthcare provider to discuss whether this software issue impacts your care.
  4. Healthcare facilities should contact Blue Belt Technologies, Inc. at their Pittsburgh office (2875 Railroad St, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 15201) or through their official Smith & Nephew representative to receive instructions on software updates or necessary mitigations.
  5. For additional information or to report concerns, contact the FDA at 1-888-463-6332 or visit www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-recalls.
