Event or Problem Description

It was reported that, while in use on a critically ill patient with out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation arrest (oohvfa), this 980 ventilator "stopped operating".The patient was under acute desaturation and had associated changes in partial pressure of oxygen (pao2) and oxygen saturation level (sao2) which required hand ventilation before transitioning to an alternate ventilator and subsequently expired.Although it was reported that the ventilator "stopped operating", a review of the ventilator logs indicates the device entered into backup ventilation (buv).The customer stated that they do not believe the death to be device-related as the oohvfa is considered a non-preventable death, even with further treatment.

Section b5 updated section h6 evaluation codes updated due to analysis of ventilator method code - remove b21 and add b01 result code - remove c21 and add c13 conclusion code - remove d16 and add d15 component code - remove g07003 and add g07001 h3: device evaluation summary: medtronic conducted an investigation based upon all information received.It was reported that, while in use on a critically ill patient with out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation arrest (oohvfa), with fraction of inspired oxygen (fio2) 0.7 and nitric oxide 30 ppm (parts per million) this 980 ventilator "stopped operating".The patient was under acute desaturation and had associated changes in partial pressure of oxygen (pao2) and oxygen saturation level (sao2) which required hand ventilation with nitric oxide, desaturation to oxygen saturation (spo2) ~55% with 10+ minutes of intervention to return to baseline, before transitioning to an alternate ventilator and subsequently expired.Although it was reported that the ventilator "stopped operating", a review of the ventilator logs indicates the device entered into backup ventilation (buv).The customer stated that they do not believe the death to be device-related as the oohvfa is considered a non-preventable death, even with further treatment.The device was available for evaluation.A replacement ventilator was arranged for the device involved in this event and the incident ventilator was sent to the local medtronic service center for evaluation.Service personnel (sp) inspected the ventilator and re plicated the entry into buv.To solve the issue, sp replaced the pneumatic interface (pi) printed circuit board assembly (pcba).Sp additionally replaced the integrated nebulizer upgrade option kit, the top captive screw on the right inspiratory door assembly, exhalation valve flow sensor (evq) and oxygen sensor.The ventilator passed all calibrations and tests per manufacturer specifications at the time of service.Additionally, the ventilator was operated for ~100 hours with no issues observed.The ventilator is ready to be returned to the customer.One pi pcba and evq was received for failure analysis.The components were visually inspected and functionally tested with no malfunction or product deficiency observed.The replaced pi pcba resolved the issue in the field; however, the returned component was analyzed and tested satisfactorily.With the information available a likely cause could not be determined.The manufacturing records for each device are thoroughly reviewed prior to release to ensure that it has met all medtronic quality specifications.The event is included in a trending and monitoring plan.Medtronic submits this report to comply with fda regulations 21 cfr parts 4 and 803.Medtronic has made reasonable efforts to provide as much relevant information as is available to the company as of the submission date of this report.This report does not constitute an admission or a conclusion by fda, medtronic, or its employees that the device, medtronic, or its employee caused or contributed to the event described in the report.Any required fields that are unpopulated are blank because the information is currently unknown or unavailable.Medtronic will submit a supplemental report if additional relevant information becomes known.
