A facility reported that during pre- testing, a microsensor (id 826653) could be zeroed normally and it could monitor the icp readings normally during the procedure.However, a while after the patient was sent back to ward, the icp monitor showed"p-0" repeatedly.Then the physician changed with another cable and icp monitor to reconnect with the microsensor, it still showed"p-0".Therefore, the problem was with the microsensor.The physician retrieved the microsensor and stopped monitoring.The microsensor was used along with icp monitor (id 826653) and icp cable (id 826636).
