Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The unit was not returned for evaluation.It has been in use at this facility for over 5 years.The assembly of the tubing is described in detail with pictures in the ifu, and it is mandatory to remove air from the tubing and test for proper functioning; this evidently did not happen, otherwise, the mistake would have been noticed.In addition, the pump tube connectors have different widths (wide for outflow, narrow for inflow) so the pump tube can be inserted in one direction only; the pump head, where the tubing goes in, also has an arrow indicating the direction of the flow.
 
Event or Problem Description
Allegedly, approximately 2/3 of the way into a turp procedure, the endomat suction pump was hooked up; however, the pump tubing was placed incorrectly into the pump, resulting in the fluid inside the cannister to be pumped back into the patient's bladder.This caused over-distension, increased pressure, and fluid retention.Post-op, the patient was kept in icu for a longer time than planned to monitor the fluid retention condition.The patient has been released, and hospital confirmed there is no long-term impact to the patient.
