H3: three pictures of the cadd administration set were reviewed.In two of the pictures, it could be seen that a valve detached from the tube.The third picture showed a tpn product coiled.No testing could be performed because no samples were provided to perform a thorough investigation.The records of pull tests process were reviewed; there were no discrepancies in the results obtained; all averages and individual results for each sample are above 5 lbs, which is the minimum acceptable.The most probable cause of the issue is that the use of dispenser solvent in without stopper originated a lack of solvent.The reported issue was confirmed.
