Manufacturer Narrative

During laboratory analysis, the product surveillance technician (pst) evaluated the blood parameter monitor (bpm) for accuracy.No specific information was communicated by the customer as to which arterial value or values were incorrect.Reference and data intensity values were acceptable and stable, gas calibrations were successfully performed, and in-vivo adjustments demonstrated the ability to fine-tune onscreen information.The temperature reported by the bpm differs from another bpm by approximately one degree celsius (c) at 15 and at 35 degrees c.If additional information becomes available on this complaint that would alter the facts and/or conclusion, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.

Manufacturer Narrative

The complaint was confirmed.The difference in temperature noted in the laboratory analysis is larger than is typical based on temperature accuracy data indicated in operator¿s manual, which indicates a mean temperature difference of -0.07 degrees and a standard deviation of 0.22 based on in-house sampling of blood paramater (bpm) monitors.This would result in inaccurate values for the other bpm parameters, given the relationship of temperature into the algorithms.Per the manufacturer's central engineering, the hematocrit saturation module (h/sat) cannot be tested on the blood loop due to a broken h/sat clip.The product will be sent to service to be brought to manufacturer¿s specifications before being returned to the customer.If additional information becomes available on this complaint that would alter the facts and/or conclusion, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
