It was reported that during intra-aortic balloon (iab) therapy, the console generated an auto-fill failure alarm.The customer used three different consoles and replaced the iab, but the issue continued.The pump would attempt to pump a few labored inflations and then alarm autofill failure.The one-way valve was removed, helium extension tubing verified, connections secured, helium was adequate, and there were no signs of blood in the helium tubing.The customer stated that they did not believe there was any kinks in the catheter or tubing and there was no known tortuosity in the patient's aortoiliac junction.It was noted that they had used the sheath that came with the iab insertion kit.The customer eventually removed the second iab and placed a new impella device from a different manufacturer.Patient was and is hemodynamically stable.There was no patient harm or adverse event reported.This report is for the second iab used in this event.A separate report will be submitted for the first iab used.
