Event or Problem Description
The patient was undergoing a thrombectomy procedure in the middle cerebral artery (mca) using a penumbra system aspiration pump max 220 (pump max).During the procedure, the aspiration pressure of the pump max decreased; therefore, it was disconnected.The procedure was completed using manual aspiration with a syringe.There was no report of an adverse effect to the patient.
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Results: blood was observed on the pump housing and on the vacuum inlet.A pipe cleaner was inserted into the vacuum inlet, and blood was observed within the tubing.Conclusions: evaluation of the returned pump max revealed that blood was aspirated into the device.If the aspiration tubing was connected directly to the vacuum inlet instead of a canister, blood may be aspirated into the pump max.If blood is aspirated into the pump max, the device may not function properly.Penumbra pumps are 100% visually inspected and functionally tested during incoming quality inspection.The manufacturing records for this lot were reviewed and did not reveal any outstanding discrepancies, design, or quality concerns.
