Received one (1) used list #14687-15 primary plum set.The set was attached to an icu medical provided intravenous (iv) bag and primed per packaging directions.A leak was noted to be coming from the cassette and no further infusion was attempted.The set was also air pressure leak tested and there were two leaks observed along the edge of the cassette.Additionally, the cassette underwent stack height measurements of which two corners failed.The complaint of plum set cracked which resulted in leakage can be confirmed.The probable cause of this event is related to the product being exposed to excessive heat during transportation, which may contribute to the warpage of the cassette leading to cassette errors and leakage.The lot history was reviewed, and no nonconformities were identified that may have contributed to the reported complaint.
