The actual device has been returned for evaluation.Visual inspection of the actual sample upon receipt, no anomaly such as a breakage was found.After rinsing and drying the actual sample, the amount of oxygen transfer and carbon dioxide gas removal were measured according to the product inspection procedure.It was confirmed to meet the factory's specifications.Bovine blood conditions hb: 12g/dl, tempertaure: 37°c., ph: 7.4, svo2: 65%, pvco2: 45mmhg circulation conditions - blood flow rate: 6l/minute and 4l/minute, v/q:1, fio2: 100% o2 transfer volume at 6l/minute: 369ml/minute, at 4l/minute: 272ml/minute co2 removal volume at 6l/minute: 292ml/minute, at 4l/minute: 215ml/minute no pump record was available.The manufacturing record and the shipping inspection record of the actual sample, no anomaly was found.Past complaint file, no other similar report of the product with the involved product code/lot # was found.Based on the investigation result, the gas transfer performance of actual sample after rinsing met the factory's specifications, and no anomaly was found.Since no anomaly was found in the actual sample, the cause of occurrence could not be clarified.The instructions for use (ifu) (capiox fx25) has the following warnings and precaution regarding gas transfer failure.- start gas supply with v/q=1, and fio2=100%, then make adjustments based on blood gas measurements.- measure blood gases and make necessary adjustments as follows.A) control pao2 by changing concentration of oxygen in ventilating gas using gas blender.- to decrease pao2, decrease fio2.- to increase pao2, increase fio2.B) control paco2 by changing the total gas flow.- to decrease paco2, increase total gas flow.- to increase paco2, decrease total gas flow.- upon patient rewarming, adjust o2 concentration, gas flow rate and blood flow rate by increasing them as needed based on an increasing in patient's metabolism.Failure to adjust the gas supply and the blood flow rate appropriately may cause insufficient o2 supply needed or the amount of the patient's gaseous metabolism.- a phenomenon called wet lung may occur when water condensation occurs inside fibers of microporous membrane oxygenators with blood flowing exterior to the fibers.This may occur when oxygenators are used for a longer period of time.If water condensation and/or a decrease in pao2 and/or an increase in paco2 is noted during extended oxygenator use, briefly increasing the gas flow rate may improve the performance.Increase gas flow rate, to 20 l/min for 10 seconds.Do not repeat this flushing technique, even if oxygenator performance is not improved.
