One (1) photo was shared by the customer, where the item #ch2020 is observed to be fully connected into a syringe.A leak around and inside the spiro is observed.No additional damage was observed on the photo.The complaint of leaks can be confirmed based on the photo provided by customer.However, since no product sample was received for investigation a comprehensive failure investigation cannot be performed and a probable cause cannot be determined.The device history review for lot#5589540 was reviewed and no non conformities were found that would have led the reported condition on the complaint.
