Event Description
|
A user facility nurse reported an external blood leak occurred approximately 30 minutes into a patient¿s hemodialysis (hd) treatment.The blood leak was external and visually observed.Drops of blood were found on the machine by the nursing staff, and upon inspection the heparin line was found to be separated from the blood line.The machine used for treatment, a 4008's machine, did not alarm.There were no reported loose connections and no issues were noted during priming of the lines.The patient¿s estimated blood loss (ebl) was approximately 5 ml.There was no patient injury, adverse events, or medical intervention required as a result of this event.The patient was able to complete treatment by continuing treatment on the same machine with different supplies.No changes were reported to the patients blood flow rate (bfr).The complaint device was discarded and is not available to be returned to the manufacturer for physical evaluation.
