(b)(4).Per the user facility, there was tubing in the flow sensor and the circuit was primed with lactated ringers.There were no backflow alarms and evidence of forward flow.The flow reading on the centrifugal controller was displayed as three dashes, and on the ccm the flow was flashing and would not change with changes in revolutions per minute (rpm).There were no tube clamps applied and the tubing was not installed in the venous occluder.No damage was noted to the flow sensor, cable or connector.In an attempt to resolve the issue, the biomedical technician (biomed) disconnected the interface module, plugged it back in and the flow reading was appropriate temporarily before the dashes and flashing flow reading appeared again.The field service representative (fsr) verified the reported complaint.He ordered a new flow sensor to be sent to the user facility.
