Manufacturer Narrative

The issue reported was that during a head/neck ct angio exam, an error occurred and the system failed to expose.The customer stated that they stopped the patient scan and alleged that this resulted in a delayed rescue resulting in the patient's death approximately 20 days later.A philips field service engineer (fse) reported to the site to evaluate the reported issue.The fse reviewed logfiles from the system and found kpm&apm over current fault errors, and, filament calibration had not been performed on a regular basis for over a year.The fse performed filament calibration to resolve the issue and the system returned to specification for clinical use.The philips medical affairs officer and clinical validation specialist reviewed all of the information regarding this event.After evaluating the event details, it was confirmed that the ct failure was not considered to have contributed directly, and, most likely not even indirectly to the patient's death.The probable cause: apm/cpm over current due to filament calibration not performed on the recommended regular basis.Internal cross reference: complaint (b)(4).Health impact code: c28554 - the cessation of life.Date of report: 20211112.
