Additional information: hamilton medical comes to the following conclusion: the event happened during startup of the ventilator, where the user observed technical events (te) 231007 (tagd_o2controllerflowhigh) and te 231008 (tagd_o2valveleak) without patient involvement.Additionally, the user reported an audible o2 leak and a failed self-test, with sensor data showing an unexpected qo2 flow of ~17 l/min despite the flow being set to zero.Logfile analysis showed that no ambient mode was triggered, and the events were isolated to the o2 mixer block, which showed deviation during calibration.The root cause was a defective control valve within the mixer assembly.The o2 mixer block was replaced resolving the issue.No patient was harmed, and the ventilator was restored to full function and returned to clinical use.Correction: updated imdrf coding in section h6.
