Event Description
|
The user facility reported to terumo cardiovascular that during cardiopulmonary bypass, oxygenator flow was reduced and high pressures were noted.This was discovered after 93 minutes on cpb.There was no pressure excursion noticed in the membrane and oxygenation function appeared normal.However flows were reduced through the device and high pressures were noted through digital palpation on the outflow of the device.There was a delay due to changing out the oxygenator.This necessitated removing the cross clamp from the aorta and coming off bypass.As the heart had not regained normal sinus rhythm the surgeon performed open cardiac massage while the perfusion team changed out the device.Approx.Time off cpb was 5-7 minutes to complete change out.Patient recovered normally in cvicu post-op.Product was changed out.Procedure was completed successfully.
