Event or Problem Description
It was reported that the renasys touch device gives a "container full" alarm without being so.They put in a new 300 ml container and the device keeps giving the same alarm, they modify the cure, the sealing system and it keeps failing.This happens twice, on friday the 16th and again on monday the 19th.It must be because both the 300ml containers and the renasys sealing kits are not from optimized batches.We place new optimized batches and there are no alarms.The procedure finished with a smith and nephew backup device.Surgical delay greater than 30 minutes.
