The production device history record (dhr) for this intra-aortic balloon pump (iabp) was not required to be reviewed per getinge standard operating procedure since the device manufacture date is greater than one year from the event date.A getinge field service engineer (fse) was dispatched to investigate.The fse evaluated the iabp unit and performed four safety disk leak tests in system diagnostics with the customer's luer plug; and it passed the test every time with no failures.The fse was unable to duplicate the safety disk leak test failures.The iabp unit passed all functional, safety, and electrical safety tests to factory specifications.The unit was cleared for clinical use and returned to the customer.(b)(4).
