It was reported during use that the insert the catheter and input the blood pressure signal to the iabp device via optical fiber.Central lumen is primed with heparinized saline.The patient's condition becomes cardiac tamponade and thoracotomy is performed.At that time, the blood pressure signal input by the optical fiber was dull, so the hospital staff tried to obtain the blood pressure signal from the central lumen with a transducer, but the central lumen was clogged and i gave up obtaining the blood pressure signal from the central lumen.Therefore, the catheter was replaced with a new trp4046.The replaced trp4046 was able to be driven by inputting signals without any problems.When i checked the tip of the catheter of the product that was the target of the defect, there was a request to investigate the cause of what seems to be a piece of tissue attached, whether this was the lead of the optical fiber signal.Please refer to related mfg report number 2248146-2021-00536 on the involved intra-aortic balloon (iab).
