H10: complaints database analysis revealed no similar event since unit installation in 2019.The header of the error message was unknown, however, based on the event description it can be assumed that the error message displayed was "arterial clamp defective".The reported error message can be due to: - hardware failure of the erc (defective zka board, defective zkb board); - mechanical blockage of the spindle; - user error (incorrect tube used by the customer).Based on the above and considering service activity performed by the field service technician, it cannot be ruled out that the reported event was caused by a temporary loss of communication between the erc and the s5 console due to loose/defective components of the erc internal boards.This report was due on november 30, 2023; however, due to a network disruption at livanova, the ability to submit mdrs was lost on november 19, 2023, before this report was ready to submit.The report was prepared and submitted immediately following restoration of the livanova systems.
