Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being submitted again to fda due to receiving email report from fda indicating original report had invalid mfr number.The original report number was 0000000-2022-09003.The information provided in this report is similar to report 0000000-2022-09003.Udi: (b)(4) the hospital gave patient 15 litres of oxygen via a re-breath mask and became unresponsive for approximately 10 seconds, a pulse was still felt during this time.The patient's blood pressure dropped to 74/48, 500ml of gelofusine was administered through venous line and the patient became responsive again.The patient reported feeling lightheaded again for 15 minutes and clinical staff attached a 500ml saline bag to the patient.The patient was able to sit up and her blood pressure was recorded as 101/62.A subsequent transfusion of 2 units of blood was given to the patient.The hospital estimated that the patient had lost approximately 1 litre of blood.However, a review of the machine service logs suggests that approximately 650ml of blood was lost (350ml that was pushed into the saline bag, and 300ml by disposing the extracorporeal circuit without completing washback).Following receipt of the incident report from the hospital quanta performed a detailed review of the machine log associated with the treatment.The review has shown that the sc+ was operating as intended and no faults with the device were identified.Therefore, the results of our investigation have concluded that the adverse event was caused by user error and the sc+ shows no sign of fault.The conclusion that the event resulted from user error is supported by the hospital report which states that the patient had switched their venous and arterial access on their catheter earlier in the treatment which subsequently led to confusion.Swapping arterial and venous access around is a fairly common clinical practice when patients are experiencing access issues that are resulting in high venous or arterial pressure.From the feedback provided by the hospital it appears that the patient has become confused and had assumed, that because she had switched the access on her catheter, that she needed to apply this reversal to the bloodlines as well.This was an incorrect assumption and ultimately led to the occurrence of the event.Lot release records and dhr records were reviewed and the product lot met all acceptance criteria.In addition, as this incident took place in united kingdom, quanta reported the incident to mhra.Trending will be monitored for this and or similar complaints.
