Manufacturer Narrative
|
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.The getinge stm that discovered the issue replaced the touchscreen due to non-functional sections even after multiple calibrations.The stm then tested the new touchscreen, verified iabp calibration and ensured that all functional and safety tests were passed within factory specifications.The iabp was returned to the customer and cleared for clinical use.The initial reporter named is a getinge employee who has different contact details from that of the event site.Please refer to the following email and phone number as contact information for the initial reporter: (b)(6).
