(b)(4).Evaluation summary: the used sample was received for evaluation.Visual inspection determined there was no damage to the stopcock or manifold.The luer connections were all checked for proper connection and were then disconnected and reconnected to ensure that adequate connection was possible.No malfunctions were identified.A simulated use test was performed with water by priming the set according to the label.The sample was hung as in the hospital environment, with the stopcock/manifold combination lying on a cart to simulate actual use and checked for disconnection between the stopcock and manifold.No malfunctions were identified when the stopcock and manifold were in this position, as confirmed by all the port caps oriented in the upright position.The stopcock is not supposed to be turned or twisted to the left unless it is being disconnected from the set/manifold.When the stopcock is turned to the left and the manifold is secure, the two components may become disconnected, which is expected by the product design.In addition to the used sample, 96 unused companion samples were received for evaluation.Visual inspection, pressure testing, and simulated use testing were performed on each of the unused samples.The samples all functioned according to product specification.The reported condition was not able to be confirmed.Should additional relevant information become available, a supplemental report will be submitted.
