During a patient's treatment the sig symbol displayed, which is believed to be that past was not applied prior to the use.When the sig came on the perfusionist clamped the lines and applied paste.After applying the paste the abruptly placed the rotaflow disposable back into the drive which created an error message.The perfusionist attempted to shut the unit down and re-boot but apparently forgot all of the steps so the rpm's would not ramp up.The perfusionist then decided to use the hand crank and called for assistance from another perfusionist.This perfusionist quickly came in and started the rotaflow without incident.The perfusionist on the case admitted that he had forgotten all of the steps to restart the unit after shutting it down.Please note that every perfusionist on the team has been trained and signed off on the rotaflow training document.There were no efforts to the patient.(b)(4).
