An event of leak and crack of the extension tube was confirmed.The investigation found that the fracture was found at the connection of the extension tube to the stopcock, which appears to be the cause of the leak.However, the cause of the fracture could not be conclusively determined.The issue is being addressed per internal operating procedures.Abbott will continue to trend the performance of these devices.The device history record was reviewed to ensure that each manufacturing and inspection operation was performed, and the product met all specifications.Additionally, a review of the complaint history identified no similar complaints reported from this lot.
