Event Description
|
It was reported by the affiliate via email that the fms vue pump, which controls the pressure of the physiological solution inside the shoulder, did not correctly regulate the pressure inside the patient's shoulder, and thereby generating an inflammation in the joint capsule.While checking the fms fluid management system/inflow tubing (fms duo+ or fms solo), it was verified that it is not compatible with the connection, the correct inlet tube would be fms fluid management system inflow tubing (fms vue) for this reason it is estimated that the inflammation was generated in the patient.

Updated event description : it was reported by the affiliate via email that the fms vue pump, which controls the pressure of the physiological solution inside the shoulder, did not correctly regulate the pressure inside the patient's shoulder, and thereby generating an inflammation in the joint capsule.While checking the fms fluid management system/inflow tubing (fms duo+ or fms solo), it was verified that it is not compatible with the connection, the correct inlet tube would be fms fluid management system inflow tubing (fms vue) for this reason it is estimated that the inflammation was generated in the patient.There was a resulting surgical delay of 1 hour approximately.The procedure was completed by performing another surgical technique.Surgical intervention was planned.Inflammation was generated in the joint capsule of the patient.There were no alternatives readily available.
