Event Description
|
The customer reported that the kangaroo joey enteral feeding pump showed that it infused 98ml instead of the programmed 66ml during patient use.The registered nurse visualized the settings prior to the feed as follows: volume to be fed 66ml at a feeding rate of 132ml/hour.The rn noted that the feeding bag was empty at the end of the feeding.Per the enteral sticker, the bag was noted to have 111ml in it.When the rn looked at the pump after noticing the bag was empty, the pump history showed that 98ml were fed instead of the programmed 66ml.The rn looked at the other settings and noticed that the feeding rate was 300ml/hour with a flush volume of 60ml, which is not nicu specific programing.The rn notified the medical team immediately ((b)(6) nnp and dr.(b)(6)) and was instructed to place the infant in the prone position and aspirate the additional 32ml per ogt that was overfed.There was no injury to the patient.Additional information provided on july 01, 2021 stated that the rn assumed that the full volume of 111ml, as noted on the bag label, was infused to the patient.The rn did not change the rate when she started the first feeding of her shift and does not know why the feeding rate was reading 300ml/hr.She turned the pump off after the event and turned it back on to check the settings and saw 300ml/hr with a flush of 60ml/hr.The patient was fed elecare 27cal for 30 minutes.The rn does not know if any alarms were activated during the entire feeding.
