Event Description
|
A report was received regarding an alleged issue encountered during use of the mps delivery set.The report states that while priming the mps gave an inadequate inlet pressure message.It was cleared and the mps primed with no issues.While the pump was recirculating the user tried flushing the cardioplegia line to the table.The same alarm was seen and the alarm could not be cleared and the console would not flow forward.The console was changed out before going on bypass and the prime line was flushed to the sterile field.While flushing cardioplegia to the field, the same error message was seen and the user could not get forward flow.The inflow line to the mps was switched to the recirc line with a 1/4x1/4 connector but this did not resolve the error message.The disposable was thereafter changed and this resolved the alarm.There were no patient complications resulting from the alleged incident.

The device was received and the complaint condition was confirmed.The tubing on the blood side of the pump cassette was assembled too far into the bushing and this resulted in the "inadequate fill" alarm as reported.A quality alert was issued as a corrective action.Quest will continue to monitor trends for the reported complaint condition.
