The plant investigation is in process.A supplemental mdr will be submitted upon completion of this activity. clinical investigation: there is a temporal relationship between hemodialysis (hd) treatment utilizing the 2008t hd machine and the patient event of cardiopulmonary arrest.However, there is no documentation in the complaint file to show a causal relationship between the patient¿s cardiac event and the use of the 2008t hd machine.Additionally, there is no allegation of a machine malfunction or deficiency reported for this event.It was reported that the patient was in the icu for sepsis.Cardiac arrest is a known complication of patients with sepsis.Increasing age and pre-existing cardiac conditions increase the risk of cardiac arrest in these patients.The patient was documented to have pre-existing cardiac comorbidities (unspecified).Furthermore, the doctor and dialysis technician stated the adverse event were not related to use of the dialysis machine.The machine evaluation resulted in the passing of all functional testing.Based on the available information and no allegation or evidence of a malfunction or deficiency, the 2008t hd machine can be excluded as the cause of the patient¿s cardiopulmonary arrest.

Event Description
|
A biomedical technician reported that an evaluation was completed on a 2008t hemodialysis (hd) machine after an adverse event occurred.It was clarified that a patient experienced a cardiovascular event during treatment on the 2008t machine.The doctor and dialysis technician determined the event was not related to use of the machine.The patient was treated for the condition and the machine passed all required functional testing.Additional information was obtained through follow-up with the dialysis technician.This patient was in the intensive care unit (icu) for an admission of sepsis (admission date unknown).No information was provided related to the patient¿s hospitalization.Approximately 20 minutes into hd treatment on the 2008t machine, the patient went into cardiopulmonary arrest and a code blue was initiated.Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (cpr) was performed.It was unknown what additional interventions were provided during the arrest.It was reported that the patient has a history of cardiac conditions (unspecified).It was determined that neither the hd machine nor the hd treatment caused the patient¿s cardiopulmonary arrest.There were no issues with the hd treatment or machine prior to the event.The patient recovered from the arrest.The patient has completed multiple hd treatments since the adverse event without issue.
