Event Description

The following was reported to us via medwatch from the customer: the cs100 intra-aortic balloon pump (iabp) monitoring pressure decreased to 40s, while the iabp was inflating and deflating.A puncture was noted in solution on pressure device, and this was clamped off, but it was also noted that after changing the bag and re-inflating there was no augmented pressure and wave form.The customer attempted to dry an area of the pump with a small towel, and the iabp fill cable broke and piece became stuck in the clear tubing and was unable to reconnect.At this point, customer had to manually inflate and deflate the balloon pump.Subsequently, the iabp was replaced with a new one to continue patient therapy, and after the iabps were changed out , it was found that the iabp pressure monitoring line had clotted off.A new arterial line was started for monitoring of augmented pressure.There was no harm to the patient.
