Manufacturer Narrative

The following fields were updated due to additional information: d10: device available for eval: yes.D10: returned to manufacturer on: 06-feb-2023.H6: investigation summary: our quality engineer inspected the 4 tri-extension sets returned with 12 q-syte samples submitted for evaluation.The reported issues of flow issues - fluid blockage and connection issues were confirmed upon inspection of the samples.Analysis of the samples showed that 6 of the q-sytes samples did not have the proper slit openings.Bd determined that the cause of the failure was associated to the manufacturing process.During the manufacturing process the septums of the q-sytes have a slit cut into them via a blade.If the blade is dull, broken, or missing in the manufacturing machinery than the slit will not be properly cut into the septum resulting in flow issues and leakage.Production records were reviewed, and this batch met our manufacturing specification requirements.
