The complaint was initially opened for the "device deflective (0xd00e)" error message.Afterwards, during inspection of the log files the technician found four failures: ¿error code 0x00033002 - runaway error¿, ¿device defective (0xd00e)" , ¿rpm control error 0x00033001¿ and ¿pump disposable error-stop".The getinge sales and service unit (ssu) confirmed that the getinge field service technician followed the manufacturer response and removed and re-connected the sensor panel and all accessible wire connections, in accordance with getinge technical support.The condition of all external connectors and connecting cables and devices were also checked by getinge technician.It was confirmed that the device passed all function tests and put back in use.As no parts has been replaced, no exact root cause could be determined for the error messages.However, according to the risk file v24 following root causes can lead to the reported failures: root cause reported failure: "device defective": failure in electronic components of drive component (e.G.Wear / loosening of components): communication to motion controller disturbed, wrong direction of pump drive , wrong speed , wrong flow direction (tubes).Root cause reported failure: "runaway error": communication to motion controller disturbed, wrong direction of pump drive, wrong speed, wrong flow direction (tubes).Root cause reported failure: "rpm control error": failure in electronic components of drive component (e.G.Wear / loosening of components): communication to motion controller disturbed, wrong direction of pump drive , wrong speed , wrong flow direction (tubes).Root cause reported failure: "pump disposable error": user does not perceive or recognize how to correctly mount the transport guard the transport guard are mounted incorrectly or not mounted at all no coupling or insufficient coupling between the cardiohelp device and the disposable during transport.Additional condition: the mechanical impact on the cardiohelp device and disposable is too high.Furthermore, in regards to the failure ¿pump disposable error¿ in the instruction for use (ifu) is stated that it is necessary to decrease the flow to zero before disconnecting and connecting the disposable to the device.The ifu (instructions for use | 1.8 | en | 09) of the cardiohelp includes a warning under chapter 2 "do not remove the disposable product during normal operation.".Furthermore in the ifu( instructions for use | 1.8 | en | 09) it is stated in chapter 2.1.4 "please refer to the respective instruction for use of the disposables".In reference of the current ifu for disposables (instructions for use | 1.5 | g-270 | 02) the following is stated in chapter 5.3.1 safety instructions for the oxygenator: incorrect installation of the hls module advanced can lead to device malfunction.This can endanger the patient.Use the device only together with the device cardiohelp-i.Install or remove the device only when the pump of the cardiohelp-i is at a standstill (0 rpm).Ensure that the device is fitted onto the device correctly and securely fixed, to eliminate the risk of magnetic decoupling between the drive and the centrifugal pump.According to the instruction for use (ifu), chapter 9 (messages) the customer should continually check the perfusion on the cardiohelp-i and by monitoring the patient.If necessary the perfusion has to be continued with the emergency drive and the cardiohelp-i has to be replaced as quickly as possible.The cardiohelp-i should taken out of service.According to chapter 5.6.1 "check before every application" the functionality of the cardiohelp needs to be checked before every use.The device history record (dhr) of the cardiohelp (material: 701048012, serial: (b)(6) , elo#: 1086084) was reviewed on 2022-05-16.There is no indication that manufacturing issues occurred, thus production related influences are unlikely to have contributed to the reported failure.Based on this investigation results, no malfunction of the cardiohelp could be confirmed.The customer will be informed about the results by the getinge sales and service unit.The occurrence rate was calculated for the reported issue and it was determined that this is not a systemic issue.Therefore, no remedial action is required.The occurrence rate related to the reported issue is currently being monitored as part of maquet cardiopulmonary¿ s trending program and additional investigations or corrections will be implemented in case of adverse trending.
