This follow-up report is submitted to fda in accord with applicable regulations¿ and as indicated by terumo cardiovascular systems in the initial report submitted to the fda on march 28, 2025.Upon further investigation of the reported event, the following information is new and/or changed: g3 (date received by manufacturer).G6 (indication that this is a follow-up report).H2 (follow-up due to additional information and device evaluation).H3 (device evaluated by manufacturer).H6 (identification of evaluation codes 10, 3331, 4210, 4307).The returned sample was inspected upon receipt and noted to have red tinged fluid inside of the gas caps.The unit was decontaminated upon receipt as per protocol.During the decontamination process, foaming was observed in the gas out cap.It is possible that there are unknown factors that contributed to the plasma leakage.A definitive root cause was unable to be determined.The plasma leakage is believed to be a result of prolonged usage which led to the fiber pore surfaces becoming hydrophilic through absorption of elements circulating in the blood over time.All available information has been placed on file in quality management for appropriate tracking, trending, and follow-up.
