Event Description

It was reported that bd alaris secondary set fluid back flowed into primary set.The following information was provided by the initial reporter: i have had a recent issue in the chemo suite with a chemo drug not infusing properly to the peripheral line.We are not sure if we are experiencing faulty tubing or faulty phaseal products.Despite being programmed on a pump correctly when started the secondary line was running at a fast rate and it appeared to be infusing up to the primary line (despite clamps being in place) not to the patient.There is now chemo in the primary and secondary line.When we have come across faulty tubing issues previously, we have sent them off to bd for investigation¿.Not sure this is possible in this situation given i have almost a full bag of chemo with patient identifiers on it.I do have packing to ship cytotoxic lines but if we disconnect the iv meds we will encounter staff exposure.Thoughts on how best to report/investigate this issue.________________________________________________________ we do not have any of the original packaging with the products used today so i cannot confirm the lot number, but see below for pictures of the items in question.
