Event or Problem Description
|
|
Philips received a complaint on a patient information center ix (pic ix) indicating that bed-to-bed alarm view randomly stops working.A philips remote service engineer (rse) contacted the customer biomedical engineer (biomed).It was indicated that this issue was caused from connection indication (ci) and alarm reflection service being hosted on the same pic ix.The fix was restarting that picix which moved the services back on separate pic ix¿s to separate the load.The last two times this has occurred has only been about two weeks apart from today (b)(6) 2025).The rse advised that the customer information technology (it) department may be blocking multicast traffic.The rse asked the customer to call back when it happens again so the rse can log into the system for further investigation.The device was in clinical use at the time the issue was discovered.There was no adverse event or patient harm reported.
