The hospital reported that during an endoscopic vein harvesting procedure, vasoview hemopro 2 equipment showed that ¿insufflation was active,¿ but the harvester was struggling with the view of the vein on the monitor.Another harvester was paged upon this discovery and then it began working on its own before they made it to the room.Approximately an hour later, the equipment was alarming that there was an ¿occlusion.¿ harvester paged the other harvester again and obtained new insufflation tubing and vasoview accessory kit, in the event that it was a part of the issue.Harvester was unable to troubleshoot with the new supplies and the paged harvester was unable to troubleshoot the equipment.A new pneumoclear co2 conditioning insufflator was brought to the room and set up by the second harvester.The new equipment worked; however, at this point the harvester had to ¿go open¿ in order to retrieve the vein from the patient¿s leg.This caused four additional incisions in the patient¿s leg and a delay in the surgery.
