Stryker Blueprint Mixed Reality Glenoid Digitizer Software Functioning Issues
Stryker is recalling the Blueprint Mixed Reality Glenoid Digitizer due to elevated complaint rates affecting system functionality. The device cannot reliably meet its intended use in total shoulder arthroplasty procedures.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall. The source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries reported; the hazard is functional failure during surgical guidance. Without reported adverse clinical outcomes, and given that the issue is impaired functioning rather than a structural defect or known pathogen, the recall meets the criteria for Moderate severity.

The recall affects 22 units distributed to hospitals and surgical centers in Texas, Minnesota, Alaska, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Tennessee, and Idaho, as well as in France, Canada, and Ireland between August 23, 2023, and December 31, 2024.
