Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Getinge became aware of an issue with one of our columns - 118001b1 - hybrid or table column, surface-mounted.As it was stated, during urgent evar on a symptomatic abdominal aortic aneurysm with impending rupture, the device malfunctioned early in the procedure and became immovable.The staff tried to use the hand control buttons combination to reset communication between the column and philips azurion angiography system without success.According to the provided information, there was no response from the column even when the override panel was used, and the staff was forced to perform a total reset by removing the fuse in the power supply of the device in the technical room.Fortunately, the c-arm was working, and the surgeon managed to complete the procedure without movement of the table.The issue led to a delay in an emergency surgery on the anesthetized patient.There was no injury reported, however, we decided to report the issue based on the potential for serious injury if the situation, namely the inability to move the device even with the use of the override panel, delay in treatment in emergency surgery was to reoccur.In the past, there were 10 customer product complaints registered for the 118001b1 with serial number (b)(6).In some complaints a similar failure was described.The issues were intermittent and recurring despite hardware replacements (e.G., control boards) and software updates.Some complaints noted the table malfunctioned when the c-arm was moved, suggesting possible interference between the table and philips system.Component replacements and software updates were performed, and the device was tested and released for usage each time.Despite these efforts, the malfunction repeatedly occurred.For all complaints, the root cause was described as impossible to define.Due to recurring issues with the magnus system, the hospital decided to remove the table from its hybrid operating room.Error logs and a detailed analysis of the table¿s communication module to determine the root cause of the malfunction were requested.Still, the getinge representative reported no longer having access to the magnus system at the site since it had been removed.With the investigation performed it was concluded that upon the event occurrence, the device was being used for the patient¿s treatment, and thus were also directly involved with the reported incident.As no table movements were possible during emergency surgery, it was considered that the getinge device failed to meet its specifications.A review of the received customer product complaints revealed that there were no injuries to a user nor to a patient or operator when this particular incident occurred.In summary, despite our best efforts to gather information during the root cause evaluation, the exact cause of the failure remains undetermined.We currently do not have any information that would warrant further action regarding device manufacturing or devices on the market, however as per our complaint handling processes will continue to monitor the customer experiences with the device for any future information.The correction of b5 describe event or problem, d1 brand name, d4 catalog #, d4 serial #, d4 unique identifier (udi) #, h3c if other provide code ¿ explain, h4 device manufacture date and h6 health effect ¿ impact codes fields deems required.This is based on the internal evaluation.Previous b5 describe event or problem: on 11th november 2023 getinge became aware of an issue with one of our columns -
