Additional information was obtained from the customer.The disconnection was noted during the change of shift safety check, while iv fluid was infusing.The patient was stable before, during and after the event, although the hemoglobin dropped.The medical intervention provided was the following: the tubing set was replaced, blood was drawn to assess blood count, and a blood transfusion was completed.The customer was unable to confirm if the blood transfusion was due to the patient¿s condition or the actual event.Testing and investigation received the tubing set for evaluation.No visual anomalies were observed.The spin collar retention of the used b33098 trifuse extension set was measured and found to meet product performance expectations outlined in the iso design guidance.If the spin feature of a spinning spiros is not activated during use, any rotation in the disconnect direction could result in a disconnect from a mating device during use.The lot number was not provided; thus, a manufacturing batch record review could not be completed.
