This report has been identified as b.Braun medical internal report number (b)(4).One unused sample in original packaging was provided for evaluation.The sample was 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 sample was leak tested and no leakage was detected.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 0.152-0.154 inches.Based on the evaluation results, the product met internal specifications.The reported defect was unable to be confirmed.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.
