Event or Problem Description
|
|
The patient was undergoing a thrombectomy procedure in the m1 segment of the middle cerebral artery (mca) using a penumbra system aspiration pump max 220 (pump max).During the procedure, the hospital staff inadvertently connected the aspiration tubing directly into the pump max instead of the canister, and consequently blood was aspirated into the pump max.The procedure was completed using a new pump max.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
