The venous cannula was received together with the hls tubing set investigated in (b)(4) (mfr report # 8010762-2015-01287).Note that this complaint relates to exactly the same adverse event (patient death) as already reported in mfr report # 8010762-2015-01.The root cause of the air entry cannot be determined with certainty because of insufficient information about the incident, the patient, and the circumstances.Note that if the venous cannula was used during application in the same state as the hls-set arrived in at maquet this would be off label use.Training was provided to the users by the sales representatives who met with the medical staff on 05-jan-2016.Based on the results of the investigation and due to insufficient information for precise determination of root cause, even after a good faith effort, there is currently no further investigation or action possible.However, this data will be handled through a designated maquet trending process.If a trend occurs, it will be escalated to quality assurance management for review and determination if further investigation should prove necessary or possible.Consequently, the complaint will be closed.This supplemental report also serves as the final report.
