The autopulse platform (s/n (b)(6)) was returned to the manufacturer for evaluation.Visual inspection was performed and no damages were observed.The platform displayed a user advisory 41 (defective patient temperature sensor) upon power up, thus confirming the reported complaint.No further functional testing could be performed due to the ua 41.Further inspection determined that the patient temperature sensor cable was improperly seated onto the power distribution board thus causing the ua 41 to be displayed.After re-seating the cable into the correct position, the platform was functionally tested for 15 minutes using a large resuscitation test fixture (lrtf) and an additional 10 minutes using a test mannequin and no further user advisories or warnings observed.A review of the archive was performed and no user advisory codes were observed on the reported event date of (b)(6) 2015.However multiple ua 41 codes were seen on (b)(6) 2015.Based on the investigation, there were no parts identified for replacement.In summary, the reported complaint was confirmed during functional evaluation as well as archive review and is attributed to the patient temperature sensor cable not being properly seated onto the power distribution board.Following service, including properly re-seating the cable onto the pdb, the device passed all testing criteria.
