The following fields were updated due to additional information: d10: device available for eval: yes.D10: returned to manufacturer on: 08-feb-2023.H6: investigation summary: two photos and two samples were submitted for quality investigation.The customer complaint of tubing defective was verified by review of the photos provided.Evaluation of the photos provided show that a large bubble formed at the top of the silicone tubing of the pumping segment.Investigation of the samples submitted began with a visual examination of the infusion sets for damage or defects.No visible damages or defects were identified on the samples.The samples were then primed and a simulated infusion was conducted in order to attempt to replicate the ballooning seen in the silicone pumping segment.The pumps were to flow at a rate of 400 ml/hr and were allowed to flow for 30 minutes.Intermittent checking of the silicone pumping segment was conducted every 10 minutes.Ballooning of the silicone pumping segment could not be replicated.No other issues were identified during testing.A device history record review for model 2420-0500 lot number 22103003 was performed.There were no quality notifications issued for the failure mode reported by the customer during the production build of this set.The root cause for the failure could not be determined because the failure could not be replicated.The probable root cause is an incorrect use of the infusion set by the operator.
