Manufacturer Narrative

The clinician used the adult oxygenator for the purposes of extracorporeal oxygenation of and carbon dioxide removal from human blood for the pediatric patient due to the fact that the clinic did not have a neonate or pediatric device available.Quadrox-i adult is intended for use in extracorporeal circulation during cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac surgery.The device oxygenates the blood, eliminates carbon dioxide from the blood and regulates blood temperature.The quadrox-i adult (hmo 71000) version with integrated arterial filter also filters out air bubbles and particles larger than 40 um.The device¿s utilization period is limited to six hours.Responsibility for deciding whether to use an oxygenator rests solely with the attending physician.Several attempts were performed to obtain more information from the customer about which performance parameters he was concernd of as well about the lot # and the udi of the oxygenator in order to perform a dhr review.No information was provided up to date.The cause of this failure was determined to not be attributed to a device related malfunction.Based on these results and the information available at this time, the oxygenator in question operated within maquet cardiopulmonary specifications.
