The device was not received for evaluation; therefore, a device analysis could not be completed; however, the compounder black box data was evaluated.Upon data evaluation, there was no evidence that the compounder or the compounder software contributed to the reported event of the patient receiving the incorrect drugs via switching of the inlets.The data provided showed that the bag produced by this compounder, without any environmental or physical interference, should have been acceptable for clinical use.The device functioned as intended from what was observed from the black box information.The reported condition was not verified.It is possible that the reported event was due to a use error.Should additional relevant information become available, a supplemental report will be submitted.
