It was reported from colombia that during an unspecified surgical procedure, it was discovered that the double air hose device exploded.The reporter explained that when the hose was connected to the pressure gauge and the cylinder was opened, the pressure readings appeared normal, but a noise was heard, followed by a sudden sound as if it had disconnected due to pressure.It was realized that the internal hose beneath the black coating had exploded, which prevented pressure from reaching the piece.It was not reported if there were any delays to the surgical procedure.It was reported that a spare device was used to complete the surgery.There was patient involvement reported.There were no reports of injuries, medical intervention or prolonged hospitalization.All available information has been disclosed.If additional information should become available, a supplemental medwatch report will be submitted accordingly.
