It was reported that in an event where the patient presented with cardiac arrest, an atrial blood gas was to be taken but could not be carried out because the new blood gas syringe is not the same vacuum as the old one and there was not enough blood in the syringe.The customer ended up having the anesthetist put in an arterial needle and took blood gas from there.No patient injury was reported.
