Disclosed herein are systems and methods for analyzing failed bodily fluid sampling. The systems and methods include providing a system having a sampling line and an access device, the access device having an inner space, wherein the sampling line is positioned in the inner space; performing a sampling event; obtaining one or more status values of the sampling event; comparing the one or more status values with at least one predetermined value corresponding to a failed sampling event; and determining whether the sampling event failed based on the comparing step. In the event of sampling failure, the systems and methods provide flushing the sampling line or a portion of the inner space of the access device via the flow controller; detecting pressure; and determining one or more possible root causes for the failure of the sampling event based on the detected pressure. |
