Event Description
|
It was reported by biomed that the arctic sun device failed calibration.Biomed stated it gave an alert 25 (patient temperature 2 out of adjustment range limit).Per follow up information received via email on 19dec2022, there was no patient involvement reported.Biomed would order a new isolation circuit board and replace it onsite.Per follow up information received via email on 27dec2022, biomed stated that the isolation board fixed the initial problem, however, it did not pass calibration due to bad chiller pump not cooling and reservoir fill sensors.Per sample evaluation results received on 03mar2023, it was reported that the root cause of the reported issue was due to a failed mixing pump.A test mixing pump was installed in decontamination for unit to cool.It was stated that the motor had excessive resistance when motor shaft spun by hand.The l-tube and double l-tubing appeared distended or expanded however water flow was not impeded, it would be replaced preventatively.It was also stated that performed visual and inspection and determined that the ac cca card and power module had degraded due to electrical overstress.It was noted that the mixing pump motor and circulation pump head were replaced.

Manufacturer Narrative

The reported issue was confirmed.The root cause was isolated to a faulty mixing pump motor.The device was evaluated and the reported issue was confirmed as it was noted that the mixing pump motor had excessive resistance when motor shaft spun by hand.Replaced the mixing pump motor (sn # (b)(6)), with new motor (aa220609-185).The arctic sun 5000 passed all performance testing, calibration, and electrical safety tests.The unit is ready for use.The device did not meet specifications, and was influenced by the reported failure.The device was not in use on a patient.A dhr is not required as the reported event is not an out of box failure and therefore the reported event is not manufacturing related.A reported issue was confirmed through other elements of the investigation to not be labeling or packaging related.H11: section a through f - the information provided by bd represents all the known information at this time.Despite good faith efforts to obtain additional information, the complainant / reporter was unable or unwilling to provide any further patient, product, or procedural details to bd.H3 other text : the actual/suspected device was inspected.
