On (b)(6) 2023, it was reported by a sales representative via sems that an abs-2016-02 biosurge kit with 5.0cc allosync pure had a hole in the tubing preventing them from being able to use that kit with the angel machine.The kit was discarded because it contained the patient's blood.No negative outcome was associated with the event.This occurred during use with no patient harm.Additional information has been requested.

Additional information: this occurred during an unspecified clinical procedure with anesthesia.There was no leakage until they squeezed on the bag.The hole was near the rotor.The site was decontaminated per the standard decontamination protocol.The surgery was completed successfully; however, as the abs-2016-02 biosurge kit could not be used, the procedure could not be augmented.It was a very minimal deviation from the intended procedure with no adverse effects for the patient.
