The means of evaluation is unknown at this time.A philips representative spoke with a clinician and an mri technician at the customer facility.The customer mri technician indicated that the patient was critically ill at the time of the event and that an nibp reading could not be obtained on the mri safe patient or bedside monitor.The customer mri technician indicated that the failure of the nibp reading was not a philips equipment failure, but that the patient was too ill to monitor.The customer indicated to the philips representative that the monitor performed perfectly.Despite multiple attempts, no additional information had been provided to aid in the investigation.This philips representative indicated that the device was working as intended with no failures found.No further investigation or action is warranted at this time.This event was reported as it involved a patient death, with no additional information on how the philips device caused or contributed to that event.As it was determined that the complaint device was functioning as intended, as the patient death was indicated by the customer as being unrelated to a failure of the philips device, this event will not be considered to be a malfunction of the philips device.
