Manufacturer Narrative

This follow-up report is submitted to fda in accord with applicable regulations.The returned sample was visually inspected, tip of the outlet port found slightly deformed, no other anomalies were noted.Ops valves are subject to a 100% leak test, to ensure there are no leaks and both the umbrellas and duckbills are functioning properly.The returned sample passed all leak tests and met all specifications therefore the complaint was not confirmed and the actual root cause can not be determined.It is possible that the unit had been over pressurized during use, causing the unit to leak.The other possibility would be the ops valve was placed in an aortic vent line and not properly clamped causing a positive pressure building up the vent line.The positive pressure relief valve opened to release the pressure, and causes the valve to leak.This may have been the cause of the reported leak, if the valve was used in the aortic vent line.All available information has been placed on file in quality management for appropriate tracking, trending, and follow-up.
