A user facility reported that an internal dialyzer blood leak occurred during a patient¿s hemodialysis (hd) treatment.The blood leak was visually observed in the venous side of the dialyzer.A blood test strip was used to test for the presence of blood, and it tested positive.It was confirmed that the machine, a fresenius 2008 t , alarmed appropriately with a blood leak alert.Fresenius bloodlines were used for the treatment.No damage was identified on the dialyzer.The treatment was halted.The patient¿s blood was not returned; estimated blood loss (ebl) was reported to be 200 ml.Follow-up with the clinic¿s facility administrator confirmed there was no patient injury, no adverse effects were experienced, and no medical intervention was required as a result of the reported event.The patient completed their treatment after being re-setup with new supplies on a different machine.The dialyzer was not available to be returned for evaluation as it was reportedly discarded.
