Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Lot number and expiry are not available at this time.Investigation is in process.A follow up report will be provided.
Event or Problem Description
The customer reported an occlusion and air bubbles during a platelet collection.It is unknown at this time the location of the air bubbles or if air was returned to the donor.Patient (donor) information and outcome are not available at this time.The platelet collection set is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Investigation:further evaluation of this event has determined that the device did not cause or contribute to a death or serious injury, nor is there a likely potential for death or serious injury associated with this event based on additional investigational information.The source of the complaint was "requests for cell counts relevant to release in the event of trima accel abnormalities." the reason for the cell count of this unit is because "occlusion, air bubble".Upon examination of the run data file (rdf) for this event, one of the reasons for the wbc verification flag is "possible airblock" because at 21 minutes into the procedure, after receiving an alarm for low platelet concentration, the operator performed an air block recovery.This is the suggested troubleshooting step for this alarm.This results in no concern for air being returned to the donor.Investigation is in process.A follow up report will be provided.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
This report is being filed to provide additional information in h.6 and h.10 investigation: the customer did not provide the lot number pertaining to this event, therefore a device history record (dhr) search could not be conducted for this specific incident.All lots must meet acceptance criteria before release.The run data file (rdf) was analyzed for this event.Root cause: analysis of the run data file confirms that the platelet products were flagged for possible wbc contamination, as the platelet concentration entering the lrs chamber was calculated to exceed the system limit.If the platelet concentration entering the lrs chamber gets too high, there is likely to be little separation between the platelets and the wbcs, increasing the likelihood for wbcs to exit the lrs chamber with the platelets and contaminate the platelet product.As such, when the concentration entering the lrs chamber was predicted to exceed the system limit, the system conservatively flagged the platelet product to be counted for wbcs.There is no suspicion of device or tubing set malfunction based on the run data file analysis.Analysis identified this to be correct system behavior.The occurrence rate of this flag depends on the configuration in combination with the actual donor pool.By changing the configuration (especially the collect concentration and/or the inlet flow management) the occurrence rate of this alert can be lowered.Upon examination of the run data file (rdf) for this event, one of the reasons for the wbc verification flag is "possible airblock" because at 21 minutes into the procedure, after receiving an alarm for low platelet concentration, the operator performed an air block recovery.This is the suggested troubleshooting step for this alarm.This results in no concern for air being returned to the donor.
