Event Description
|
A user facility biomedical technician (biomed) reported to fresenius technical services that the ultrafiltration (uf) goal changed from 300 ml to 3000 ml with no staff intervention during the patient's hemodialysis (hd) treatment on the 2008t machine.It was reported the patient completed treatment without experiencing an adverse event, serious injury, or requiring medical intervention.Additional information was obtained during follow-up with the biomed and a user facility nurse.The nurse clarified that the issue resulted from operator error.The staff member who programmed the patient¿s treatment typed 300 ml instead of 3000 ml as the intended ultrafiltration (uf) goal.The error was not noted until treatment completion when the patient pulled the programmed 300 ml.The patient did not experience any symptoms or adverse events as a result of the reported issue.The patient returned to the clinic on a different day for an additional treatment to remove the fluid that was not taken in the original treatment.The biomed stated that the machine was removed from service for testing following the reported event.A simulated ultrafiltration (uf) treatment was completed without issue.No issues were identified and no parts were replaced.The machine has been released for service.No samples will be returned to the manufacturer for physical evaluation.
