Event Description

Philips received a complaint by the customer on the v60 indicating that the proximal pressure sensor alarm had begun to sound.The device was in use on a patient at the time the reported issue was discovered.Clinical assessment performed based on the information currently available in the complaint record.It was reported that ¿patient was brought up from the ed on a v60 plus bipap machine.Once patient arrived to ccu, the ed rt stated the proximal pressure sensor alarm had begun to sound.The ed rt changed to proximity line, but this did not help.Once nurse arrived at patient's room, it was noticed as an equipment malfunction alarm and not something we would be able to troubleshoot ourselves.A new v60 was brought to patient's room and the patient was placed on new machine.The patient experienced an increased work of breathing along with an increased respiratory rate.¿ the patient¿s increased work of breathing and increased respiratory rate represents a change in clinical condition.The clinicians then brought a new ventilator which presumably addressed this change of clinical condition.
