Event Description
|
It was reported that during intra-aortic balloon (iab) therapy, the console indicated that it was unable to calibrate the fiber optic sensor.The customer stated that the message appeared earlier when the patient had attempted to get out of bed.There were no other support devices.The cuff pressure was reading in the 90s and the arterial line tracing was erratic with irregular numbers.The customer attempted several calibrations, disconnected, and reconnected with no change.It was noted that the central lumen was slow to flush and would not aspirate.An underlying arterial line waveform was not present using the transducer.The customer was advised to do a chest film and that another arterial line site could work.After the patient's mitral valve surgery, nothing had changed.The physicians were aware of the issue and the console was running off electrocardiogram trigger.There was no patient harm or adverse event reported.
