Manufacturer Narrative
|
A review of the device history record (dhr) for this unit showed no irregularities during manufacturing that were relevant to this issue.The run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.Root cause: review of the rdf for this procedure indicated the discrepancy between the targeted replace volume and the actual amount of replace volume delivered was due to the operator ending the procedure early.The initial target replace volume was set to 5700 ml.Approximately 6 minutes into the run, the target replace volume was set to 6200 ml.The device was tracking appropriately to this target; however, a series of three ¿replacement fluid was not detected¿ alarms were generated approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes into the procedure and the operator proceeded to end the run after the third of these alarms.At that point, the system had only replaced 4843 ml.Therefore, the difference between the targeted replace volume and the actual replace volume was due to operator intervention.
