On 08/16/2017 09:25 am (gmt-4:00) added by (b)(4).The production device history record (dhr) for this intra-aortic balloon pump (iabp) was reviewed and no non-conformances related to the reported event were noted.A getinge service territory manager (stm) was dispatched to evaluate the iabp and verified with the customer that the patient did not have an ecg or blood pressure waveform.The patient was revived and the iabp functioned properly.The iabp was switched due to ethernet connection not communicating with his system.The stm confirmed the problem with the ethernet connection to his system was due to the customer's defective lan cable.The customer supplied a new cable.The stm verified the iabp communicates with the his system.The stm tested the iabp and found it functions according to factory specifications.But the stm did verify multiple fault code 53 entries logged before and during testing.The stm reloaded the software per service manual and retested for 1 hour and verified no new fault code 53 was logged.The stm verified the iabp was fully calibrated and passed all functional and safety tests per factory specifications, returned to customer and cleared for clinical use.
