## Reason for recall

Potential development of cracks or breaks in the tubing near the Luer or Y site of the device. Devices that have developed breaks or cracks can cause leakage resulting in exposure to chemicals such a chemotherapeutics or biohazard material (e.g., blood). A crack or break could result in potential blood loss, catheter occlusion, air embolism, under or interrupted infusion, or site contamination which could lead to infection.
