Manufacturer Narrative

A getinge field service engineer (fse) confirmed with the staff that the iabp alarmed "leak in iab circuit" and stopped inflating balloon during use.The fse then verified the alarm in the iabp logs, and was able to duplicate alarm during testing.The fse found that the iab fill connector on the side of the safety disk was partially tightened.He then tightened the connector and performed functional testing, as well as, safety check to factory specifications.The iabp passed all functional and safety checks was released for clinical use.There were no parts replaced.
