Event Description
|
It was reported that during use of the device for a cardiopulmonary bypass (cpb) procedure the temperature reading was inaccurate.The surgical procedure was completed successfully.There was no delay, no blood loss, nor adverse consequences to the patient.During the procedure it was noticed that the temperature reading was at approximately 40.5 degrees celsius.The patient had been cooled, and re-warmed during the procedure, at a range of 32 and 37 degrees celsius.It was noted that all other parameters were within expected range during the rest of the surgery.It was discussed what the temperature of the shunt sensor reflects, and it was reiterated that the perfusionist does not use this as patient temperatures, and no patient decisions were based upon this value.The unit was not exchanged during the procedure, and was noticed on a few other procedures, as noted in the occurrence rate.There was no harm or blood loss associated with the issue.
