Event Description

A user facility biomedical technician reported that a dialyzer blood leak occurred immediately after the initiation of the patient¿s hemodialysis (hd) treatment. The blood leak was noted as being an internal blood leak. The leak was visually observed. The machine, a fresenius 2008t machine, alarmed appropriately with a blood leak alarm. The patient¿s estimated blood loss (ebl) was approximately 300ml. There was no patient injury, adverse events, or medical intervention required as a result of this event. The patient was restarted on a new machine and treatment completed successfully with new supplies. The complaint device was reportedly discarded and cannot be returned to the manufacturer for evaluation.
