Event or Problem Description
As reported by the user facility: brief inquiry description: repeated air in line alarms with updated tubing.Detailed inquiry description: the following statement is directly from the customer's email: in the last 48 hours we have hung 20 different immunotherapy infusions.Out of 20 infusions, only one has been able to run without the "air in line" alarm.We have confirmed with pharmacy that they are using the new tubing as well.The only way we are currently able to make the pumps work is to use ultrasound gel on the tubing where the air sensor is.That's the only way we are able to complete the infusions.No injury reported.
