Event Description

Medtronic received information that prior to use of a custom tubing pack, the customer reported that during the suction test, the one-way valve in the suction circuit did not function and it could not be used.The customer stated that the valve was connected in a normal direction. as the problem was discovered just before the start of surgery, there was no time to replace the circuit and no single one-way valve was available, therefore, the surgery had to be performed without this one-way valve.The remainder of the custom tubing pack was used.There was no adverse patient effects.Medtronic received additional information that the device was unusable during the priming check.
