The described issue stated in the incident report could not be reproduced during the investigation.Water flowed freely through the lines of the device in all configurations, and no pressure was felt.The device history records (dhr) review showed no abnormalities during the manufacturing process and that the product met the production acceptance criteria per established manufacturing production instructions.The reported incident was likely attributed to operator technique, or a connection during the operation that could not be replicated during the investigation of the device.The root cause of the incident cannot be confirmed.
