The following were reviewed as part of this investigation: patient severity, frequency analysis, applicable previous investigation(s), sample (if available), applicable fmea documents, labeling, and applicable manufacture records.Based on a review of this information, the following was concluded: the complaint of a leak is confirmed.An initial visual observation showed use residue throughout the sample and a needleless injection cap was observed to be attached to each luer hub and an end cap was attached to the needless injection cap on the purple lumen.A split was observed in the extension tubing of the purple lumen just within the distal end of the luer connector.The ink on the extension legs was observed to be slightly worn and faded and the pinch clamp of the red lumen was observed to be engaged.A microscopic observation revealed the fracture surface of the split in the extension tubing of the purple lumen was rough and exhibited cracks/fissures and beach marks.
