Additional Manufacturer Narrative
D1: serial number: the customer was unable to identify the exact devices used in this event; therefore, these are the potential serial numbers reported by the site: (b)(6).E1: reporter phone number: (b)(6).H11: the device was evaluated during an on-site visit.During the visit, two operating rooms were made available to simulate a positioning commonly performed by the team, using all the equipment and devices, along with the yellofins leggings.Among these rooms, one of them was where the adverse event occurred.In this room, a simulation of patient positioning was carried out, using a member of the hospital's nursing team and a member of the baxter team as models.For this action, four pairs of allen yellofin stirrups with lift-assist devices were made available.A simulation was carried out using two pairs of yellofins leggings that, although of the same model, do not belong to the same serial and have different years of manufacture.It is worth mentioning that the four pairs of leggings have natural wear and tear of the pieces due to the time of use, since the customer reported having leggings from the years 2013 and 2020.During inspection the segregated boots have original parts.During the simulation, the baxter team identified that there is no protocol, no uniformity or synchronization at the time of placing the patient's legs on the leggings, and that the angulation of these legs is at the discretion of each team.It was also found that the confirmation of the angle of the leggings is carried out with the naked eye, not only by the practice of the medical team, but also due to the wear on the pistons of some leggings, which no longer have the visible angulation label.During the placement of the leggings, the doctor who participated in the simulation categorically stated that, in their opinion ¿ especially in the case of the event that occurred to the doctor¿s patient ¿ the compartment syndrome occurred due to the lack of mobility of the leg device.As a preventive measure, the physician reported that, when positioning their patients, the doctor usually tightens the device screw as much as possible and always performs the mobility test at the end of the positioning.On the issue of the synchronized positioning of the patient's legs in the devices, the team reported that this is only performed by two doctors when both are available, but that, most of the time, it is done by a single professional.The investigation is currently ongoing, a final report will be submitted upon completion.
