Event Description
|
It was reported that during use of the device for a cardiopulmonary bypass procedure, the perfusion system worked fine but some remember a strange noise which seemed to come from the machine.At the same time or soon after the noise, one of the roller pumps failed to maintain occlusion on the circuit.The occlusion was hand adjusted until a pump jam alert was alarmed and then the occlusion was backed-off to allow flow.Flow through the circuit was never re-established.There was a 12 minute delay and 2000ml of blood loss.As a result, an alternate system-1 perfusion system was employed.The surgical procedure was completed successfully.

The reported complaint was not confirmed.During the laboratory evaluation, the product surveillance technician (pst) observed no strange noises or failure of occlusion occurred on the roller pump.The pump was received with the occlusion knob turned within a half a turn of full occlusion.The pst inserted tubing into the pump's raceway and started rotations.No strange noises were heard from the pump.The pst increased occlusion until pump jam occurred.The pst removed the pump from its housing and observed the rotation of the motor, belt and guts pulley with nothing unusual seen or heard.The pst operated the pump for three days with no strange noises or changes in occlusion occurring.There was no physical or visual indication of failure.The roller pump was sent to service and the service repair technician (srt) observed the customer pump to operate as intended during functional testing.The srt replaced the roller pump central processing unit (cpu) board and the membrane panel as a precautionary measure.The unit operated to manufacturer specifications and will be returned to the customer.If additional information becomes available on this complaint that would alter the facts and/or conclusion, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
