Product investigation completed.The pump was visually inspected; no leaks were found.The foreign material (fm) was found inside pump.Based on the visual inspection, this fm was concluded to likely be contaminate from the patient.The fm was unable to be removed from the pump and further analyzed.The pump was functionally tested to confirm the functionality and failed the 8lb.Activation test.The pump therefore required more than 8lbs.Of force to activate.Product analysis was unable to confirm the reported events related to fluid loss but confirmed pump malfunction.Product investigation completed.As the complaint component was not returned for analysis, no product analysis could be performed.The reported allegations could not be confirmed.
