Reported risk: Manufacturer has determined that condensation in the drain line tubing may lead to a false blood detection alarm activating when no blood is present. Also liquid spills, such as saline, can create bridges of resistance between the circuit components, causing the circuit not to function as intended. This can impact initiation or continuation of therapy.
