Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that immediately after inserting the intra-aortic balloon (iab), the pump generated a twisted catheter alarm every 20 minutes.It was noted that another manufacturer's pump was being used.Pumping was paused, forcing the operators to turn off the alarm and manually restart the iab.It was noted that under the fluoroscopic control, no image compatible with kinking or twisting of the iab was found, which it was therefore decided to leave the iab in place.The iab was removed after two days of therapy.There was no patient harm or adverse event reported.
