The customer's report that the tubing set leaked at the hub nearest the patient was confirmed.The set sample was visually inspected for kinks, holes/tears in the tubing or damages to the components.No issue was observed.The set was re-primed and no leak or issue was observed.Visual inspection observed that the leak was at the engagement of the pvc tubing to the inlet of the bottom smartsite port.Further inspection of the leaking tubing end shows the tubing's outer diameter to be out of specification.Functional testing was performed; fluid was leaking from the engagement of the pvc tubing.The root cause that the tubing set leaked at the hub nearest the patient was a supplier/manufacturing issue.
