  • Causa
    Fresenius medical care has been made aware of incidents regarding quality, safety and performance of the 4008 hd bloodlines tubing. the currently supplied roller clamp may cause customers to experience difficulties in handling that might result in excessive force being used to close the clamp causing the roller part to detach. this may cause infusion of saline solution in the event of incorrect use of the roller clamp, if the second clamp present on the arterial line is also damaged or not closed. a number of leakages were reported at several locations on the 4008 bloodline tubing systems. leakages on the bloodlines may cause blood loss into the environment and may lead to air intake into the system. while the air intake is normally detected by the dialysis machine’s air detector, a leakage of blood may not be detected.
  • Acción
    Until further investigations are complete, Fresenius recommend that the Instructions for Use in each carton box of the HD bloodlines be followed, namely: 1. Ensure that all caps and connections are secure; and 2. Inspect the extracorporeal circuit for leaks during priming phase and treatment, taking corrective measures (e.g. tightening Luer-Lock connection) or exchanging the bloodline as necessary. Ensure that no excessive force is applied on the roller clamp on the reinfusion set in order to regulate the flow of fluid through the infusion pathway. Fresenius are currently investigating and working to address the issues with the tubing.
