These regulations were not met as evidenced by:
Based on interview, observation and record review tne facility failed to develop policies and procedures for the safe use of the portable ECMO (Extra Corporeal membrane
Title 22 §70433(a) (4) The statute is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview, observation and record review, the facility failed to develop policies and procedures for the safe use of the portable ECMO bypass machine for intra-facility transport to prevent sudden disconnection of the tubing.
How the correction will be accomplished. both ~PQrarily and permanently.
1. ECMO tubing packs borrowed from 6/10/10 Oxygenation device-a portable heart lung machine) bypass macnine for intra-facility transport to prevent the sudden disconnection of tubing on the oxygenator venous blood inlet of the ECMO.The tubing was stretched and came off of the oxygenator inlet when Patient l's gurney was being lifted into the ambulance at the facifity's ambulance loading dock on . 10 at 8:20 P.M. The facility failed to follow the oxygenator manufacturer's recommendation to connect and band all blood lines. This failed practice resulted in the disconnection of the blood tubing from the oxygenator venous inlet and was the direct cause of the death of Patient 1.
Findings:
According to Facility A's Transfer Summary dated ~O, it indicated that Patienl 1 had hypertension (high blood pressure), presenting with acute onset of continuous chest pain at rest and was found to be in new atrial

Patient 1 was transferred to the facility on .,0 for evaluation for coronary bypass surgery (surgery where veins are taken from other parts of the body and grafted to the heart to by pass diseased coronary arteries).
Review of Patient 1 's operative record. dated ~ 0, indicated she was taken to the operating room on _ ,0 and underwent triple coronary artery bypass surgery. During surgery, Patient 1 was placed on a cardiopulmonary bypass machine (machine that takes over the function of heart and lung during heart surgery). Following the surgery, several attempts were made to wean (switch from heart-lung machine to person's own heart and lung) Patient 1 from the cardiopulmonary bypass machine. An intra-aortic balloon pump (balloon placed in aorta to help heart pump more easily) was placed in Patient 1's descending aorta. Another attempt was made to wean Patient 1 off the bypass pump without success The decision was made to transfer Patient 1 to Facility 8's Intensive Care Unit so she could be placed on a long term left ventricular assist device (LVAD-device that helps maintain pumping ability of heart) to rest the heart. Surgeon 1 decided to place Palien! 1 on an exlracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Summary note dictated on _ 10 indicated: "Patient was taken to the operating room. Surgery consisted of internal mammary left anterior descending, saphenous (large vein in leg) vein graft (use another vein to create a conduit so blood can flow around the heart) to the obtuse marginal right coronary. This was complicated by inability to come off pump as well as inability to place intra-aortic balloon pump via the grain Ultimately, intra-aortic balloon pump was placed via the ascending aorta (major artery thai carries blood away from the heart); however, patient could not come off the pump, and arrangements were to transfer the patient to the university medical center after placement of ECMO support. ECMO was placed, and patient was transferred out of the operating room and was being loaded on the ambulance when the ECMO circuit became disconnected and patient expired."
In an interview on 6/25/10 at 1:15 PM, the Hospital Risk Manager (RM-1) was asked if there were any facility policies or procedures for setting up the portable ECMO bypass system for intra-facility transport. RM-1 said, "No, we are working on writing them up now."
In the same interview RM-1 was asked if there were any performance standards for the Circulatory Support Periusionist job description that addressed the set up of an ECMO bypass system for intra-facility transport. RM-1 said, "No, there are none."

tn an inlerview on 6/28/10 at 10: 11 AM, Circulatory Support Perfusionist 1(CSP-1) said, "We could not get Patient 1 off of the bypass machine in the OR (operating room)... the surgeon decided to put the patient on an ECMO pump to rest the heart and lung,,, this was so the patient could be transported to a different location . there was a lot of confusion when we were setting il up, this system was a little different than the normal ECMO .. . actually there was a lot of confusion going on. We had several pieces of tubing shoved together and when we were trying 10 load the patient in the ambulance the tubing became disconnected . The lower tubing connected to the oxygenator (reselVoir where blood from the body enters 10 be re-oxygenated) became disconnected."
In the same intelView CSP·1 was asked why he thought the tubing became disconnected. CSP·1 said, 'We were trying to get the ECMO equipment on the IV pole (metal pole with wheels where ECMO equipment is attached) into the ambulance before the patient... . I was trying to angle the IV pole under the door of the ambulance while we were lifting the patient up the tubing became stretched and disconnected... that was it... when the tubing becomes disconnected there is nothing else you can do, the tubing just pulled off ... Surgeon 1 called it then (declared the patient had expired) and said I guess it is over now ... we returned the patient to the OR."

In a concurrent interview CSP-1 was asked if there was some kind of band that is applied to secure the tubing to the oxygenator. CSP-1 said. "Well on this case we did not have a band, no tie band (plastic tie band that secures the tubing to an outlet). This was the first time we have done this type of transport out of the OR into an ambulance. We had a lot of tUbing" . not the length that we needed. just for the transfer there could have been a little extra"
CSP-1 was asked for a copy of any manufacturer's recommendations to follow when assembling the tubing to the oxygenator. CSP-1 said, "No, the only things that have warnings are about the pressure alarms on the machine."
In the same interview CSP-1 was asked, "When was the last time thai you set up the ECMO oxygenator for this type of transport?" CSP-1 said, "The last time was a couple of years ago; actually it was a different kind of situation."
In an interview on 6/28/10 at 11:00 AM, Surgeon 1 said, "Patient 1 came from another hospital for coronary artery bypass surgery , During the surgery things were going relatively uneventfully until it was time to come off the Cardiac Bypass machine... we could not wean the patient off the pump so we put in a balloon (rASP) to rest the heart... the balloon was still not enough to get her off the bypass machine so the decision was made to put her on a
