Manufacturer Narrative

Livanova received a report stating that an inspire oxygenator increase transmembrane pressure during a surgery and oxygenator inlet port disconnected.Medical team elected to change-out the oxygenator.Complained oxygenator was disposed by the customer and thus is no available for investigation.Verification of manufacturing records confirmed that involved device was released as conform according to specification.Analysis of complaints database revealed no other similar cases notified for batch concerned.No pump sheet (including all the perfusion data) was provided by the customer.Thus, no analysis of the event at customer's site in terms of pressure excursion could be done.Livanova it is reasonable to consider the increased transmembrane pressure associated to an undesired cellular activation and consequent increase of biological material inside circuit as a result of platelet adhesion and fibrin layer deposition in oxy fibers.High pressure excursion event across oxygenator is a multifactorial phenomenon possibly affected by interaction of multiple contributing factors such as clinical procedure (e.G.Surgical material), therapies (e.G.Anticoagulant prescription, heparin composition and priming composition) and patient-specific health conditions.The risk is in the acceptable region.No corrective action is deemed necessary.Livanova will keep monitoring the market.
