Manufacturer Narrative

This report has been identified as b.Braun melsungen ag internal report (b)(4): we received one used and empty easypump ii st 100-0,5-s without packaging and an original packed sample.The received samples were taken to a visual inspection.Damages were not detected at the received samples.In addition, the samples were filled up to the nominal value (100 ml) and was taken to a functional test respectively a leak test was carried out.After starting the pumps (opening the white clamp) and waiting for 60 minutes the pumps did work (solution was running).After these 60 minutes leakages were not detected.At the 2 samples we detected no leaks at the filter and furthermore we detected no leaks at the complete systems.Reviewed the dhr for batch 21f01ge382, there is no abnormality and no such defect detected at in process and at final control inspection.Based on customer description, they complained the filter is defective because they observed air bubles in the sample.For any bubbles that were formed at part before the filtered area, the air bubble will be removed after passing through the filter.It is potential that air bubbles observed by nurse is not due to filter malfunction but some preparation error such as incomplete priming.Since no filter leaking is observed and filter can function properly to prevent air from passing through it, thus this complaint is considered as not confirmed.
