The following fields were updated due to additional information: d4: medical device lot #: 22039018.D4: medical device expiration date: 03-mar-2025.H4: device manufacture date: 03-mar-2022.D10: device available for eval yes.D10: returned to manufacturer on: 17-nov-2022.H6: investigation summary one 30207e sample from lot 22039018 was received in opened packaging for investigation; residual fluid was present in the device.The feedback provided by the customer suggests a complete occlusion was detected at the back check valve (bcv) during attempts to prime the infusion set.Functional testing was performed by connecting the returned sample to a 50ml bd plastipak syringe from stock and attempting to flush with fluid; a complete occlusion was detected at the bcv, confirming the customer's experience.No occlusions or flow restrictions were detected from the line without the back check valve.The bcv was then disassembled from the infusion set and a close inspection of the component performed; some excess material was identified at the inlet port of the bcv component.The details of this feedback were forwarded to the manufacturing site as well as to the supplier of the bcv component for investigation.They confirmed that during injection moulding of the bcv an excess of material is likely to have formed within the lumen of the inlet port, which resulted in an occlusion of the component.A definitive root cause for this excess material was not identified during the investigation, however a supplier corrective action request has been raised in order for the supplier to further investigate the root cause of this defect.A review of the production records for lot 22039018 did not identify any in-process testing failures or quality deviations which may have caused or contributed to reports of this nature.
