The following fields were updated due to additional information: d10: device available for eval yes.D10: returned to manufacturer on: 19-dec-2023.H6: investigation summary: one sample of material number 2426-0007 was submitted for quality investigation.The customer complaint of tubing defective damage was verified by visual inspection.Visual examination of the sample indicated that the tubing was cut below the lower pumping segment fitting and the c-clamp was damaged.The cut in the tubing was straight through without any indication of excessive stretching or tearing of the material.Additionally, the c-clamp is bent where the clamping mechanism will not engage and there is some damage to the clamping area where there is significant chipping of the clamp material.A device history record review for model 2426-0007 lot number 21039019 was performed.There were no quality notifications issued for the failure mode reported by the customer during the production build of this set.The root cause of the issue seen in this complaint is an issue created during the manufacturing of the infusion set.The manufacturing location has been informed and an internal investigation is being conducted in order to determine the source of the failure.An investigation was conducted at the manufacturing facility to determine if the crushed clamp and cut tubing could have been created during any step in the manufacturing of the infusion set.After investigation of the assembly process, it was concluded that there are no steps in the manufacturing process that could reproduce the damage seen in the infusion set.The probable cause for the damaged seen on this set is that the set was damaged during transport or storage of the set.There is an unknown external factor that was able to cut the tubing along with crushing the clamp.A quality alert was generated to notify the assembly staff about the damage on the set.H3 other text : see h10.
