RECOMMENDATIONS: On July 17, 2017, Datascope Corp./MAQUET sent affected customers an "Urgent Product Recall Medical Device Field Correction" notice informing them of the device's risks, and listing actions that should be taken to minimize the risk of patient harm until affected IABP units can be serviced. The firm recommends that the risks and benefits of using an affected CS100i, CS100, or CS300 IABP be assessed by the medical team for each patient when no alternative IABP or alternative therapy is available.
The notice asked customers to please adhere to the following instructions:
- Check inventory to identify any affected IABP units that may be stored or are currently in use.
- Pursuant to the User Instruction Warnings, health care providers are instructed not to leave a patient unattended during IABP therapy.
- Be aware that customers with affected IABP unit(s) will be contacted by a representative of the Maquet/Getinge Service Team to schedule on-site service to install gaskets in the IABP unit(s) and upgrade software.
-
Until the affected unit is serviced for the potential false blood detection alarm, clinicians should follow the instructions on the Blood Detection Alarm Help Screen to validate or clear the alarms.
- Maquet/Getinge recommends that users review the water condensation procedure to reduce the potential for condensation accumulation.
- In the event the IABP fails to successfully cycle and clear the alarm, please remove the IABP from service and contact your local Maquet/Getinge Sales & Service Office.
- Until the affected unit is serviced for the potential fluid ingression into the IABP, users should review the operating instructions regarding cautions on placement of fluids and hanging of bags of fluid over the IABP.
-
Customers are instructed to complete and return the Medical Device Field Correction Response Form enclosed in the notice via fax to 1-973-807-9217, or email at: IABP2017TWO@xxxxxxxxxxx.
