It was reported to siemens that during the ct examination of an unstable, critical patient, the patient needed a cpr (cardiopulmonary resuscitation), the patient table sheet and some equipment cables got stuck in the slit between the table and tabletop, so the patient could not be pulled out of the gantry for cpr until staff member cut the sheet and the cables in order to release him.The delay was reported as "a few minutes".Due the patient's medical history, the family decided that the patient should not be resuscitated ("dnr").The patient unfortunately passed away following septic shock.This was not a result of the delay in cpr in the ct room.The reported event occurred in (b)(6).
