MAUDE data represents reports of adverse events involving medical devices. This maude entry was filed from a 01,02,05,06 report with the FDA on 2014-03-18 for TRUECPR? TRUECPR? COACHING DEVICE 3309630 manufactured by Physio-control, Inc.
[4299100]
During a post-market evaluation study on the truecpr coaching device the customer reported that the palm of their hands were not comfortable on the sternum pad during use, making it uncomfortable to the user. The customer also reported that the users felt that it was difficult to reach the appropriate depth. There was patient use associated with the reported event. The patient, a male, was reported have a large chest which made it difficult for the device user to apply appropriate pressure during chest compressions. The patient was transported to the hospital with a heart rate and was breathing. No further details about the patient, or the event, were provided. There were no adverse effects reported as a result of the reported issue. After a review of the device data download, it was observed that although proper compression depth was being achieved, the device was indicating that the depth was too shallow which would prompt the user to push harder to achieve a deeper compression depth.
