3.9 Pod Replacement (Sterility
Compromised - Faulty Pod)
In the case a Pod drains its battery before the end of
a surgical procedure or if a Pod gets contaminated,
or malfunctions, it can be replaced by another one
without restarting the application following these
instructions:
1. Open another iASSIST Knee 2-Pod Kit.
2. Press on the barcode button.
3. Scan the 2D barcode located on the iASSIST Knee
Pod Kit.
4. Power-on each of the new Pods.
5. Once all the Pods have joined the network, perform
the intraoperative calibration as described in the
“Powering- On Pods and Intraoperative Calibration”
section.
6. Once the new Pods are calibrated, discard the
drained or contaminated Pod and replace it with the
same type of Pod from the newly calibrated Pods
(for example, if a “Reference” Pod attached to the
Validation Tool has drained its battery, remove the
Pod from the Validation Tool and attach the newly
calibrated Pod to the instrument).
7. Continue the surgical procedure where it was
stopped to replace Pod.
