Manufacturer Narrative
|
The production device history record (dhr) for this intra-aortic balloon pump (iabp) was not required to be reviewed as per company standard operating procedure since the device manufacture date is greater than one year from the event date.A getinge service territory manager (stm) was dispatched to investigate.The stm was unable to duplicate the reported issue, but observed multiple instances of low vacuum errors in the iabp log files.As a precautionary measure, the stm replaced the compressor then completed all safety, functionality, and calibration checks and all tests passed to factory specifications.The iabp unit was cleared for clinical use and released to the customer.
