Event or Problem Description
The customer called to report a blood leak alarm at the end of cycle 2 after drawing had been completed on the xt125 bowl.The customer stated there was no fluid in the centrifuge waste bag, no fluid visible anywhere from the kit and no fluid was felt on the kit.Css advised the customer to abort the treatment and remove the bowl for further inspection.The customer stated the bottom of the bowl is intact and there is no fluid in the centrifuge chamber.Some dried blood was found on the top of the bowl.Customer stated the patient is sleeping with a blood pressure of 144/70.The patient will be given 500ml of normal saline to replace the blood loss.The customer will return the kit for evaluation.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The centrifuge bowl associated with the complaint was returned.The return bowl was examined and analysis indicated that there were 4 spots of dried liquid of a very light color on one side of the bowl, below the seal,.Which could be an indication a leak occurred because the bowl seal lifted during the treatment.The likely cause for lifted bowl seal is back pressure in the system due to an occlusion.Examination of the returned bowl found no visible defects or damage in the ceramic rotary seal.Therefore, the root cause could not be determined.A review of the device history record for this lot of bowl found no related issues.(b)(4).
