Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
This report has been identified as b.Braun medical internal report number (b)(4).Five samples were provided for evaluation.All five samples were visually evaluated, and no defects were observed.To replicate the reported defect of the air-in-line alarm on the pump, the sample was attached to the pump and then tested by running therapy while staggering the flow rate throughout the therapy.No alarms occurred during the testing of the returned sample.The samples were also leak tested, and no leakages were observed.A measurement of the outer diameter of the pump segment tubing was taken and found to be 0.152 inches which meets the specification of 0.150-0.154 inches.The reported defect was not confirmed.All available information was forwarded to the supplier for further evaluation.A possible root cause could not be determined.We will maintain this report for further references and continue to monitor other reports for similar occurrences.If any additional pertinent information becomes available, a follow up will be submitted.
