H10: the actual device was not available; however, a companion sample was received for evaluation.The companion sample was evaluated but no issue was observed.It was reported that the customer connected a y accessory between the patient catheter and the luer lock of the access line.The user manual instructs that the access line of the set must be directly connected to the patient catheter (i.E.Without any device between the access line and the catheter) via the male luer connector of the access line.The use of additional devices, such as three-way valves, stopcocks, or extension lines, may impair pressure monitoring.Per the instruction in the prismaflex graphical user interphase (gui), the y-line/connector used for priming of the prismaflex set must be removed prior to connecting the patient; the access and return lines are to be connected directly to the catheter.Thus, the use of the y-connector during treatment is use error.A batch review was conducted and there were no deviations found related to this reported condition during the manufacture of this lot.Should additional relevant information become available, a supplemental report will be submitted.
