A sample was received for the purpose of our investigation.The investigators were able to observe the reported failure mode in the sample provided, the provided sample contained a transparent object cemented into the extension tube of the catheter adapter.The batch record also was reviewed, no related abnormalities were found.The most likely root cause of this failure mode is that the extension tubing came into contact with excess glue at the extension tube bonding station.The excess glue can occur, on occasion, during the cleaning of the glue gun.
