Event Description

The event occurred on an unknown date and involved a locking universal vented vial spike, clave, 10 units that leaked chemotherapy during preparation.The customer reported that several preparers had leakage issues.They found the filter associated with the spike was not working.As a result, leaks were observed as well as overpressure inside the bottle causing projection inside the enclosure when the spike is removed from the bottle.The drugs involved were paclitaxel, etoposide, and docetaxel (fairly viscous chemotherapy).Additionally, the customer stated there was an unprotected exposure to chemotherapy causing the contamination of the preparer (gloves, jacket), the bottle to be discarded each time (financial loss), changing of gloves, changing the sterile field and cleaning the laminar flow chamber.The spill was cleaned per protocol.No further information was provided.The customer reported four incidents.This report captures the third of four incidents.
