It was reported that there were connection issues that led to leakage.We have been having difficulty with the connection between the iv catheter and the saline lock seating properly and leaking.They have either had to really force it together or restart the patient's iv; this has happened about a half a dozen times in the last couple of days and additional times in the last few weeks.Additional information 4/3/2026: can you please provide an exact date of event? dates starting (b)(6) 2026 (issue of multiple occurrences reported on (b)(6) 2026 and lot was able to be replaced 3/30/26).What was the impact to the patient? for the most part, the connect would leak slightly and forcibly tightened to minimize the leak.On one occasion, the iv could not be salvaged and needed to be restarted due to the catheter connection leak not being able to be managed.You mentioned that this issue has occurred approximately half a dozen times over the past couple of days, as well as additional times in the past few weeks.If so, could you please provide the date of each occurrence, indicate whether there was any patient impact, and advise whether the issue occurred with any other lot numbers? issue did not occur with any other lot numbers, affected dates were included (b)(6) 2026.Daily issues with the connect would leak slightly and forcibly tightened to minimize the leak.On one occasion, the iv could not be salvaged and needed to be restarted due to the catheter connection leak not being able to be managed ((b)(6) 2026).
