Cont¿d d.11: 250ml icu medical bag, lot number 08-130-jt, exp: 1aug2021, 0.9% sodium chloride injection and 4-way stopcock.The customer's report of a tubing set silicone segment bulge was confirmed.The silicone segment area, directly underneath the upper fitment, was misshapen and was of a different appearance than the rest of the silicone segment.Further visual inspection under magnification found the walls of the silicone tubing segment to be concentric.No functional testing was performed due to visual observation the cause for this failure mode determined that the ballooning is caused by excess pressure within the silicone segment.The root cause for the source of the excessive pressure is unknown.
