Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The event was reported by the hospital to the national authority only.The user facility did not involve the local draeger s&s organization into evaluation or repair of the device.Draeger tried to obtain further information or additional details about the event and follow-up actions - without success.The device was manufactured in october 2019 - its status of preventive maintenance and repairs is unknown to draeger.The lack of information does not allow a case-specific evaluation and no reliable conclusion in regard to the potential root cause.In fact, it can even not be confirmed that indeed a ventilator/ventilation failure has occurred.The manufacturer finally concludes - given that a malfunction of the device has occurred - the device is designed to post a corresponding alarm if automatic ventilation fails.There's a breathing bag integrated to ensure that patient support can be done by means of manual ventilation, but reportedly - according to the user facility report - this also failed during the event.An assessment which scenario may apply for this particular event is not possible due to missing relevant information.The event may have been the consequence of a component malfunction, an use error or an infrastructure issue or a combination of these factors.
