Manufacturer Narrative

Investigation: the device history record (dhr) was reviewed for this unit.There were no issues noted in the dhr that would have contributed to the elevated wbc count experienced by the customer.The run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.Root cause: a definitive root cause for the observed leuko reduction failure remains undetermined at this time.The analysis of the run data file did not find a conclusive cause for the higher-than-expected wbc content reported in the 2nd rbc product for this collection.No unusual process variable was identified and the signals in the run data file indicate that the trima accel system operated as intended.It cannot be ruled out that this leukoreduction failure could be the result of an issue with the filter.Investigation is in progress.A follow-up report will be provided.

Event Description

The customer would like the run data file investigated to determine a possible cause for the elevated white blood cell (wbc) content in the second bag of a double red blood cell (drbc)product.There was not a transfusion recipient or patient involved at the time of the residual wbc testing, therefore, no patient information is reasonably known at the time of the event.Donor unit #(b)(6).The disposable set is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.
