Qn#(b)(4).The sample was returned for evaluation.A visual exam was performed and no defects were observed.The circuit was hooked up to the leak tester and was leak tested against iso standard 5367:2014, annex e, which specifies an adult circuit under 60 +/- 3 cmh2o of air pressure, cannot exceed a leak rate greater than 70ml/min.The reading on the leak tester was 210 ml/min which is over the iso requirement.After the functional inspection , the blue temperature port was found to be deformed.The circuit was found to leak from the blue temperature port due to it being deformed.A device history record review was performed and no relevant findings were identified.Based on the investigation performed the complaint was confirmed.There is not sufficient evidence to assure this damage was originated during the manufacturing process.The root cause for the issue could not be identified.Teleflex will continue to monitor and trend for reports of this nature.
