Spectrum medical staff was present to train the perfusionists in the 3rd week of installation.The system was set correctly and in initiation mode.Before starting with cpb, 50ml was given for 2-3 times and all was good.When the perfusionist started bypass and increased the flow, the vein qso was opened to produce a minimal flow, but the artery qso did not open (led flashing).They decided to exit from the initiation mode, and the vein occluder went to a fully open position, however the artery occluder remained closed.Flow was stopped, spectrum medical staff removed the tubes manually from the qso and the flow to the patient was restored.After that, the perfusionist wanted to reuse the arterial qso.Before reinserting the tube in the qso, they did the carriage test and the function was ok.After that, all the features were correct and they used the qso until the end of the operation with no further issues.
