Additional Manufacturer Narrative
The customer¿s report that a bubble had formed on the silicone pump segment was confirmed.The report that the pump alarmed for either "occlusion" or "air in line" was not confirmed.During inspection, no bubbles were observed on the silicone pumping segment; however, the a small portion of the silicone tubing below the upper fitment was softer and more elastic than the rest of the silicone tubing.Clear liquid was observed inside both the primary and secondary tubing and drip chambers.Functional testing was performed; no issues were observed.An iv push was performed by occluding the tubing above the distal smartsite.This process was repeated for the middle smartsite.No issues were noted by the device.The silicone segment did not bubble and the device did not alarm.Pressure testing was performed.A bubble in the tubing was observed at 18 psi near the upper fitment.After the functional testing, three samples of the silicone segment were analyzed and the walls were found to be concentric.The device pump and pcu that were in use at the time of the reported event were not returned for investigation.The root cause of the silicone segment bubble was not definitively determined.
