Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the 93522 co set cable would not read a temperature of the injectate at all and it would read the temperature low.If the temperature was read low it would give falsely high values for cardiac index output and skew the rest of the hemodynamic profile.When comparing these thermodilution values to the fick cardiac index and output calculated from an svo2 from the same patient it was clear that something was amiss.They knew when they were receiving outputs of 14 to 15 there was no way it was accurate.Patients were not treated based on these numbers.They were able to troubleshoot by exchanging the suspect cable.Patient demographics were unavailable.This was during use.
