Event Description
|
Medtronic received information regarding an external drainage and monitoring system.It was reported that the system with cerebrospinal fluid (csf) in the tubing drained into the collection bag below the 2 clamps which were closed in the morning as well as csf leaking from the tubing below the graduated cylinder.The tubing fully drained and discussed with the nurse about closely watching if it reoccurred.In the evening, the same issue occurred and questioned if a product issue was with the clamps as they were not fully occluding the drainage.A blue plastic clamp was applied to prevent any unaccounted csf that may be draining into the bag inadvertently and not being accounted for in the hourly drainage of this device.However, the device was replaced with another one of the same unit.The patient's status at the time of the report was alive-no injury.
