Manufacturer Narrative

It was reported that with a pressure motoring set with vamp, the pressure line got disconnected from the sampling site during priming.  further follow up with the customer indicated that the device would not be returned for evaluation; it was discarded at the hospital due to the covid-19 pandemic.Without return of the unit it is not possible to determine if some damage or defect existed on the unit that could have contributed to the event.It is not known if some procedural factors may have contributed to the event.No corrective actions will be taken at this time.A review of the manufacturing records indicated that the product met specifications upon release.  it is common clinical practice to inspect all products before usage.These products are used by highly trained clinicians, experienced in identifying and mitigating any hazards that arise during use.In addition, they are used in critical care units or ors where patients are closely monitored.If the pressure tubing becomes detached during use, it will affect the pressure waveform, which will immediately alert the clinician to begin the troubleshooting process.In this case, there were no patient complications noted.   complaint histories for all reported events are reviewed against trending control limits on a monthly basis and any excursions above the control limits are assessed and documented as a part of the monthly review.
