Event or Problem Description
|
|
"we had a patient in cardiac arrest who had a lot of blood in his mouth.We attempted to suction using the vx-2, device was on with pump running, the battery was fully charged but we could not get it to suction.The device was returned to supply so i do not know where it is now or if it is being repaired or looked at.I can forward your contact information to someone who may be able to help you get more information on the device.I am not sure what the outcome of the patient was.I do not think he made it as he was an older gentleman.We were able to get a second suction device.The device failure delayed the ability to properly ventilate him, but i can say that it wouldn't have made a difference.Patient had a lot of past medical conditions.".
