The user facility reported that it was an emergency case, mera oxygenator of mera l-circuit was used initially.As the oxygenation performance decreased, around 4:15, fx15 only from xry39001 circuit was used to perform ecc.Afterward, the performance of fx15 decreased also.After pumping, they proceeded to pcps, however, though the performance was improved somewhat when the patient was cooled, overall gas exchange performance was poor for both mera and fx15.It was an emergency case, the patient's tg was about 3700, and the blood inside the circuit seemed white possibly due to fat.The procedure outcome was not reported.The patient was not harmed.
