Event Description
|
It was reported that during use of the device for a cardiopulmonary bypass (cpb) procedure, the arterial monitor reportedly blanked out, then came back on by itself during surgery.The device was not changed out, as the monitor came back on right away and they kept using it for the case.The surgical procedure was completed successfully.There was no delay, no blood loss, nor adverse consequences to the patient.Per the clinical summary on (b)(6) 2015: the arterial monitor reset very quickly during cpb and disrupted pressure measurement of the cpb circuit for a short time.The display returned quickly and the user would have needed to re-zero the pressure transducer to return pressure measurement and allow for high pressure limitation.The case completed successfully, without delay and without associated blood loss.There was no harm observed.
