The event unit was returned to applied medical for evaluation.Visual inspection confirmed the complainant¿s experience of a fractured cannula tip.Based on the condition of the returned unit, it is likely that the cannula fractured due to excessive force exerted on the tip.It is also possible that the cannula was more susceptible to breakage.However, the exact root cause of the cannula tip fracture is unknown.
