Event or Problem Description
A distributor in japan reported on behalf of a healthcare facility that a mr210 humidification chamber was leaking water after 2 days of use.The healthcare facility identified a crack in the chamber.There was no reported patient consequence.
 
Additional Manufacturer Narrative
(b)(4).Correction: section d1: brand name updated to fisher & paykel healthcare.Method: the subject mr210 humidification chamber was returned to f&p healthcare in new zealand, where it was visually inspected.Results: visual inspection of the returned device confirmed a horizontal crack near the base flange.Conclusion: the cause of the reported water leak is due to the crack near the base flange.The humidification chamber was most likely exposed to an external mechanical stress.We are unable to confirm the source of the external mechanical stress.Every mr210 chamber is pressure tested following the manufacturing process to check for any leaks present in the chamber due to cracks and other causes.Any chamber which fails this test is rejected.In addition, the pressure test is followed by a visual inspection of each chamber.No cracks in the chamber dome are acceptable.Any chamber that fails this inspection is rejected.The user instructions that accompany the mr210 humidification chamber state the following: "do not soak, wash, sterilize, or reuse this product.Avoid contact with chemicals, cleaning agents, or hand sanitizers." "do not use the chamber if the seals are not intact when received." "in the event of the chamber leaking, switch the humidifier off and replace the chamber." "ensure appropriate ventilator and flow source alarms are set before connecting breathing set to patient.".
