Event Description
|
The customer reported that while performing rinseback for a spectra optia collection procedure, they received an 'inlet saline line' alarm due to an obstruction.The customer contacted terumo bct support specialist for troubleshooting.While the support specialist instructed the operator to open the inlet saline roller clamp, she discovered that the saline bag was empty.A new saline bag was setup and rinseback was successfully completed.The customer stated that the patient is doing well and was in stable condition during the procedure.The customer declined to provide patient identifier and age.The spectra optia collection set is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.

This report is being filed to provide additional information and corrected information.Investigation: the disposable set was not available for return.The run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.During analysis it was determined that some of the alarms occurred before the set was primed.Terumo bct technical support examined the rdf and believe that the cause was due to the rotors being loaded incorrectly with the black dot in the wrong location.Tech support stated that the alarms did not contribute to the reported condition for this event.Predicted fb was 129% and patient ended with 143% with the saline that was infused.Customer called for troubleshooting and the problem was identified and corrected by the customer, therefore the customer was aware of the error; no additional retraining is necessary.Root cause: based off the clinical findings and rdf analysis, root cause for the hypervolemia was determined to be the result of the operator leaving the return saline roller clamp open after saline divert.This resulted in a saline bolus going back to the patient.Per rdf analysis, in order to initiate rinseback, the system prompts the operator to open the inlet saline roller clamp.In this case the system did not detect a change in pressure because the inlet saline roller clamp remained closed.The system generated a "inlet saline line obstructed" alarm to alert the operator to open the inlet saline roller clamp.The operator opened the roller clamp and completed rinseback.
