Event Description

There was a leak in the tubing of the circuit that comes out of the pleurevac which we do not touch (it's wrapped and the only manipulation we do is to connect the end of this tubing with the drain) and which should be totally sealed.Tried to tighten it again but the drained liquid was still leaking out of the tubing.Additional information indicates the leak of pleural fluid occurred at the red/blue connector.
