    (B)(4). EVALUATION SUMMARY: BAXTER RECEIVED ONE SAMPLE CONTAINING APPROXIMATELY 250 ML OF SOLUTION IN THE RESERVOIR. THE REPORTED CONDITION OF NO FLOW WAS NOT CONFIRMED. VISUAL EXAMINATION OF THE DEVICE SHOWED NO SIGNS OF BLOCKAGE OR ABNORMALITY IN THE DELIVERY TUBING OR THE RESERVOIR THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE REPORTED CONDITION. A FUNCTIONAL TEST SHOWED THAT FLOW WAS READILY OBSERVED AT THE LUER. FLOW CONTINUED WITHOUT STOPPING UNTIL THE SOLUTION WAS EMPTIED FROM THE RESERVOIR. NO ROOT CAUSE WAS IDENTIFIED, AS NO EVIDENCE OF PRODUCT MALFUNCTION WAS OBSERVED. NO REPAIR WAS DONE, AS THIS IS A SINGLE-USE DEVICE WHICH WILL BE DISCARDED.
