H.6.Investigation: 2 max zero mz9292 connectors and a syringe were received and tested by our quality team.The connectors were visually inspected then tested with the syringe provided.The connectors were then infused with saline solution.No test showed abnormalities or leakages.There is an issue though in the past that has been noticed with connections between max zero and 3ml syringes.This issue has been escalated and treated with great urgency.In a parallel investigation, there were also 10 mz1000-07 ordered and tested with all syringes - 10 unused and 2 returned.Every one of these combinations leaked.The investigation found that the syringes were the culprit, rather than the mz, as the mz would not leak with other syringes.There were several samples sent for cae (computer aided engineering) analyses investigation in durham, nc.The ct scans conducted there found a leak path within the 3 ml syringe/mz connection, caused by an abnormal bump in the syringe luer wall.Functional testing and advanced scanning shows there are no anomalies or problem with the mz returned or ordered.The testing did find a molding anomaly with the 3 ml syringes, both returned and ordered, and the plant is conducting a further investigation.The samples tested here in vernon hills are being sent to the manufacturing location for further investigation.The manufacturing location will be taking ownership of the issue and determining if a project will need to be initiated.A device history record review for model mz9292 lot number 20095722 was performed.There were no quality notifications issued for the failure mode reported by the customer during the build of this set.A complaint history check was performed and this is the 1st related complaint reported with the defect/condition of leakage with lot #20095722 regarding item #mz9292
