Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The customer uses syncright p3t (personalized patient protocol) to calculate the required contrast amount for each patient.After a software upgrade, the user changed the weight preference settings on the patient demographics page to pounds (lbs), as this is an option.The user manually entered the patient weight in pounds, but the calculation for the contrast amount was given in kilograms (kg).This resulted in an increased amount of contrast volume recommended for the patient.It was confirmed that the patient received a double dose of contrast, however, no injuries or harm was reported.A philips field service engineer (fse) reported to the site to evaluate the system and confirmed the reported issue.The fse reset the patient weight preference and changed the weight input from pounds to kilograms.The injection rate was then properly calculated and subsequent scans operated normally.Engineering concluded that the software failure only occurs when the user selects the weight unit to be configured in pounds.The trained healthcare professional is required to confirm that all injection values are acceptable prior to scanning a patient.The injection values are displayed on both the injector and the console p3t ui (user interface).The trained healthcare professional should be able to detect the if the amount of contrast is higher due to the conversion of patient body weight, and the system requires the operator to confirm the recommended dosage before pressing the ok.The probable cause: software failure to convert patient weight units according to injector interface specification.Internal cross reference: (b)(4).Health impact code: c50675- no health consequences or impact.Date of report: 20210604.
