Root cause: a root cause is unable to be determined at this time.Corrective action: due to the root cause determination, a corrective has not been determined.The lot in question was on reduced sample level testing.Current lots are on tightened sample level testing.Investigation findings: an internal complaint (b)(4) was received indicating that a stopcock leaked during a procedure.Samples were returned for evaluation and four of these samples were tested.The following tests were conducted: torque test, vacuum leak testing, and hydrostatic leak testing.During hydrostatic testing, leakage from the bottom of the handle was observed in two samples.The handles were removed from the bodies and inspected for anything that may cause leakage.Nothing was identified.Handles from the same raw material lot were inserted onto the body previously tested and both samples passed.In one of the samples that leaked, green-colored water was used to see where the leak originated.There was no distinct evidence as to where the leak originated.The device history record was reviewed for discrepancies that may have contributed to the reported event.No discrepancies were identified.There have been no changes to the material used in production of this product.Year to date (b)(4) eaches have been sold.This is the first reported issue of this nature.The investigation is complete at this time.If new and critical information is received, this report will be updated.
