Manufacturer Narrative

This f/u report is submitted to fda in accord with applicable regulations - and as indicated by terumo cardiovascular systems.Upon evaluation of the device, the complaint was confirmed.Initial visual inspection of the actual sample revealed crazing around the top and bottom housing welds.A small crack was found on the top housing underneath the outlet port, as well as multiple cracks on the top housing near the weld.The actual sample was setup on a sarns drive motor and built into a circuit of saline solution.The rpm was set to 3500 rpm with a back pressure of 660mmhg.The sample began leaking after approximately 10 minutes of testing.The leak was coming from the cracks in the top housing located at the top housing / separator weld underneath the outlet port of the pump.The crack was caused by dehp compound residue on the x-coated separator of the pump.The separator came into contact with dehp when it was dipped into the incorrect tank during manufacture.All available information has been placed on file in quality management for appropriate tracking, trending and follow up.
