Event Description
|
The fiberoptic capabilities of the patient's aortic balloon pump catheter stopped working.Unsure of when.Clinicians were able to use the pressure monitoring lumen of the same catheter to transduce the pressure waveform for the patient so they did not have to change or remove the catheter due to the change in the source of the arterial waveform.This did not harm the patient.Manufacturer response for intra aortic balloon pump catheter, (brand not provided) (per site reporter): manufacturer would like device returned for evaluation.Plan to return to manufacturer.
