This follow-up report is submitted to fda in accord with applicable regulations ¿ and as indicated by terumo cardiovascular systems in the initial report submitted to the fda on april 26, 2024.Upon further investigation of the reported event, the following information is new and/or changed: d4 (additional device information - added exp date).G3 (date received by manufacturer).G6 (indication that this is a follow-up report).H2 (follow-up due to additional information and device evaluation).H3 (device evaluated by manufacturer).H4 (device manufacture date).H6 (identification of evaluation codes 10, 3331, 4210, 19).The returned sample was visually inspected upon receipt and it was noted that the sparger assembly was not present.It was then leak tested, as received by connecting with a calibrated manometer, submerged into a water bath, and pressurized up to 1030 mmhg and a leak was noted immediately.The large bore adapter blue cap was then loosened and re-tightened by hand.The sample was then leak tested a second time by connecting with the calibrated manometer, submerged into a water bath, and pressurized up to 1030 mmhg, and no leaks were noted.The root cause for this event was determined to be the large blue vent cap for shunt sensor was not fully tightened either during setup of the circuit, or after the gas calibration.All available information has been placed on file in quality management for appropriate tracking, trending, and follow-up.
