It is in the form of a reference number to a publication in the EPO.
Under the EPO standards, the A2 "kind" suffix would mean it is European patent published without a search report.
In this case, the Invention title is "Pressure Sensor", and the application is owned by Fenwal, Inc, in Illinois, USA. It was published and is related to US201161523001P, published Feb 13, 2013, describing a systems of sensors for a blood-processing system
