A titan otr pump, two cylinders and a reservoir were received for evaluation.A separation was noted at the inlet tube/strain relief junction of the reservoir.Testing revealed this to be a site of leakage.The separation surfaces appear to be rough and irregular.Surface abrasion was noted on all tubing of the pump, cylinders and reservoir.No functional abnormalities were noted with the pump or the cylinders.Quality reviewed the manufacturing records for this device and confirmed that there were no discrepancies that would have contributed to this complaint and verified that the devices from this lot met all specifications prior to release.Review of nonconforming reports revealed no nonconformance with this lot that would have contributed to the event.Based on quality's examination, quality concluded the abrasion noted on pump tubing indicated they had twisted and resulted in enough stress to cause a separation in the reservoir inlet tubing.A separation of this type would then allow the loss of fluid, making the device inoperable.Management routinely reviews events such as this and monitors complaint levels.Additionally, events of this type are captured in the product risk documentation.Based on this information no further corrective action is required at this time.
