The complaint/event involved a 7" (18 cm) appx 0.30ml, smallbore pressure infusion (400psig) ext set w/remv microclave® clear, purple clamp, luer lock, non-dehp tubing.Leaking was reported when using the microclave while putting in an iv and attaching the device and then priming/flushing normal saline.The patient was receiving docetaxel and had drips on arm at connections, they used soap and water to wash.Their usual set up was with an unspecified angi cath and this j loop connected to non-pvc alaris tubing.There was also slight delay as the nurse donned ppe, switched out jloop and then administered rest of infusion.It was stated that they could not figure out if there may be a "crack" on the device or just part of the plastic that is supposed to be there.There was no harm as a result of the complaint issue.
