Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation: the device history records (dhr) were reviewed for this lot.There were noe vents noted in the dhr that would have contributed to the elevated wbc count experienced by the customer.The run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.A definitive root cause for the observed leukoreduction failure remains undetermined at this time.The analysis of the run data file did not find a conclusive cause for the higher-than-expected wbc content in the platelet product reported for this collection.No unusual process variable was identified and the signals in the run data file indicate that the trima accel system operated as intended.Based on the available information, it cannot be ruled out that the higher-than- expected wbc content in the platelet product could be donor-related.Investigation is in process.A follow-up report will be provided.

Event Description

The customer would like the run data file investigated to determine a possible cause for the elevated white blood cell (wbc) content in the platelet product.There was not a transfusion recipient or patient involved at the time of the residual white blood cell (rwbc) testing, therefore no patient information is reasonably known at the time of thee vent.Donor unit # : (b)(6).The platelet collection is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.
