Event or Problem Description

Information was received from a healthcare provider regarding a generator.It was reported that during a surgical procedure, the handpiece failed to prime and there was no saline flow in tubing.Initially tubing was placed into the pump segment and the prime button was pressed.The pump segment rollers were audibly turning inside but there was no fluid movement.The prime feature was stopped and the tubing was removed from the pump.Troubleshooting methods were performed with tubing removed and prime button pressed briefly with the pump segment open to visually inspect movement of the rollers (no issue noted), the iv bag was squeezed but no fluid was passing through the tubing, a new 1000ml bag of saline was spiked and the drip chamber was squeezed but did not move fluid down the tubing, a final attempt was made by placing the tubing back into the pump segment but the tubing would not prime or deliver fluid to the tip of the device.Failed to resole the issue after multiple attempts.A new handpiece was delivered to the sterile field and then connected to the aex generator, it worked without issue.No reported impact on patient.Additional information was received.It was reported that the surgery performed at the time of event occurred was an anterolateral approach to a total hip arthroplasty and there was a minor surgical delay of 3 minutes.
