Additional Manufacturer Narrative
As a result of this report for a skin injury to the patient, a review of information including photos identified that the water temperature was set at 33 c during therapy.Furthermore, the altrix unit was confirmed to be functioning correctly.Based on the photos and discussion between a stryker engineering manager, customer quality engineer, and a senior staff medical science liaison, it was determined that the patient injury was likely a result of excessive compression force from the blanket.For the issue of fluid leaking onto the patient support surface, it was determined that this was likely due to a broken/damaged blanket assembly.However, this could not be confirmed as the product was discarded prior to being evaluated by a stryker representative.
