Manufacturer Narrative

Device evaluation found that the top heat exchanger housing/aa port appeared to have been produced at the supplier at the higher end of the range.This may have resulted in a hairline gap between the male luer of the check valve and the inner dimension of the additive port.During simulated use testing on an in-house console, only a miniscule leak was observed with the test sample.A cpar has been initiated with the supplier to modify the core pins used in the manufacturing process to bring closer to the nominal value for the housing.The device history record for the lot was reviewed and no devices were rejected and no specific manufacturing yield issues were reported similar to the reported complaint condition.
