***in relation to the update made in this current follow up #1 mdr, field was updated with an incorrect serial number.However, the field is no longer open to the writer to make the correction.Note that the correct serial number is (b)(4) and not the one reflected in d4 field.The production device history record (dhr) for this intra-aortic balloon pump (iabp) was not required to be reviewed per company standard operating procedure since the device manufacture date is greater than one year from the event date.A getinge field service engineer (fse) evaluated the iabp and performed running test.The fse was able to duplicate the reported issue and observed that the surface temperature of the iabp after the running test was approximately 56 degrees celsius.To resolve the issue, the fse replaced the scroll compressor and again performed running test and there was no re-occurring problem.The iabp was returned to the customer and cleared for clinical use.

The scroll compressor was returned to getinge national repair center (nrc) for further evaluation per policy due to the reported event of "overheating alarm".A getinge engineer inspected the scroll compressor and no visual damage was observed.The scroll compressor was then installed into cardiosave test fixture and tested to factory specification per service bulletin sb (b)(4) and cardiosave service manual.The nrc could not reproduce ¿overheat¿ alarm and the scroll compressor passed testing.The nrc is retaining the scroll compressor per procedure.
