    (B)(4). INVESTIGATION: THE RUN DATA FILE WAS ANALYZED FOR THIS EVENT. THE SIGNALS IN THE RUN DATA FILE INDICATE THAT THE HIGHER THAN EXPECTED WBC CONTENT IN THE PLATELET PRODUCT WAS LIKELY A RESULT OF AN ESCAPE OF WBCS FROM THE LRS CHAMBER DURING A PORTION OF THE PROCEDURE. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE NUMEROUS ACCESS PRESSURE ALERTS AND ADJUSTMENTS COULD HAVE DISRUPTED THE STEADY STATE OF THE SYSTEM AND COULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE HIGHER THAN EXPECTED WBC CONTENT IN THE PLATELET PRODUCT. ADDITIONALLY, BASED ON THE AVAILABLE INFORMATION, IT CANNOT BE RULED OUT THAT THIS LEUKOREDUCTION FAILURE COULD BE DONOR RELATED. INVESTIGATION EVALUATION AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS ARE IN-PROCESS. A FOLLOW-UP REPORT WILL BE PROVIDED.
