Event Description
|
The customer reported that the intra-aortic balloon pump (iabp) alarmed and stopped inflating when repositioning the patient.
When investigating the alarm and checking the tubing, there was clearly blood visible in the tubing connecting intra-aortic balloon pump (iab) catheter to iabp machine.
The medical staff was called, tubing was clamped and decision was made to remove iabp and sheath as the customer was unable to remove catheter alone.
The catheter, tubing and machine were then sent to medical physics for investigation.
This event occurred while in use on a patient.
No adverse event was reported.
It was later reported that the alarm that occurred during the event was "standby one minute".
