Investigation: a photograph was submitted in lieu of the disposables set to aid in the investigation.The picture confirm that the blood diversion bag was inflated with pressurized air.The clamp was closed but it was skewed on the tubing enabling a portion of the tubing to allow air to pass during pressure test.The run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.The ¿pressure test error¿ alert generated during the tubing set test in this procedure occurred because the expected pressure increase was not seen in the allotted volume pumped.Analysis of the run data file suspects that the pressure increase was not sufficient because the pinch clamp on the sample bag line was likely not occluding the line properly.If the clamp on the sample bag line is not occluding the line properly during the tubing set test, air can have a pathway to enter the sample bag.The device history records (dhr) were reviewed for this lot.There were no events noted in the dhr that would have contributed to the air to donor by the customer.Correction: the local support team retrained the operator on (b)(6)2022.Investigation is in process, a follow-up report will be provided.

Event Description
|
The customer reported an incident of air in the blood diversion bag during setup/post tubing set test.The operator did not notice the air in the bag and connected the donor and opened the sample bag clamp.The operator heard "a sound of gas" and noticed that the sample bag was inflated.The operator closed the clamp and removed the air in sample bag, then continued the procedure.During the collection process, the donor felt chest distress, dizzy and cough, and the draw pressure was low.The operator had to end the procedure.The donor returned to normal after rest.The customer declined to provide the donor's id or age.The disposable set is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.

This report is being filed to provide additional information in h.6 and h.10.Corrected information is provided in b.3.Investigation: the run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.The analysis of the run data file did not find a conclusive cause for the higher-than-expected wbc content in the platelet product reported 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.Based on the available information, it cannot be ruled out that the higher-than-expected wbc content in the platelet product could be donor-related.The device history records (dhr) were reviewed for this lot.There were no events noted in the dhr that would have contributed to the elevated wbc count experienced by the customer.Root cause: based on the available information, the analysis of the run data file did not find a conclusive cause for the higher-than-expected wbc content in the platelet product reported 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.Based on the available information, it cannot be ruled out that the higher-than-expected wbc content in the platelet product could be donor-related.
