Manufacturer Narrative

Several good faith efforts (gfe) were made to obtain additional information associated with this complaint, but attempts have been unsuccessful.Based on the information available and the cause of the reported problem was unknown.The pms clinical expert reviewed the reported event of the microstream co2 adaptor sticking to the smiths et tube.This resulted in the inability to suction critically ill patients, which resulted in the inability to maintain the patient's airway, a life-threatening condition for the patient.Emergency intervention, including extubation and reintubation, was performed to preclude permanent impairment.This event is assessed as possibly related to a product problem with the device.However, the event does not appear to be predicted in the risk management document ((b)(4), timna consumables risk management file).This holder of this document is medtronic.The event is no longer meets criteria for reporting by philips as the product that caused or contributed to the event was a non-philips product.
