The reported product is an unknown baxter access set.The device was not returned, and the lot number is unknown; therefore, a device analysis could not be completed; however, the reported event of "the propofol wasn't being delivered" is likely related to the kinked tubing.This is considered a use error.There is abundance of information in the spectrum pump operating manual for the user to ensure that iv sets or container vents are properly functioning, that tubing clamps are in the proper positions and that tubing is free from kinks or signs of collapse outside the pump to prevent undetected occlusions.Should additional relevant information become available, a supplemental report will be submitted.
