Investigation result: no mz5307 sample was available for investigation; the customer reported that the affected sample was from lot 25029025 and that "there is a leak in the area where the anti-reflux cap is located.¿ as part of the investigation, the customer provided a video of the affected sample; analysis confirmed that leakage could be observed between the maxzero and the syringe, however no obvious damage was visible which may have contributed to the customer's experience.The details of this feedback were forwarded to the manufacturing site for investigation.Previous investigations have been unable to determine a potential root cause for the customer's experience; no obvious manufacturing defects or potential manufacturing contributors were identified which may have resulted in the observed damage.A review of the production records for lot 25029025 did not identify any in-process testing failures or quality deviations which may have resulted in a report of this nature.Although a definitive root cause could not be determined in this instance, previous investigations have confirmed similar damage can be caused or contributed to by a combination of different factors, including prolonged use of substances that are aggressive to plastics, over-torque of the component during connection with the male luer, or use of a male luer that is not compliant to iso standards.A review of the customer feedback database indicates that complaints of this nature are rare and there is currently no trend for issues of this nature against the mz5307 product.
