The event involved a primary plum set, 0.2 micron filter, prepierced y-site, polyethylene lined light resistant tubing, distal microbore tubing, secure lock, 104 inch.The reporter stated, at 18:00, after the chemotherapy drug (paclitaxel) was finished, it was switched to carboplatin, and after about 5 minutes, the patient felt their clothes was slightly wet.The patient immediately informed the nurse, who went to check on the patient.A white hole on the side of the carboplatin set filter was found, with drizzle-like spotty leakage (very slow).The pumping of the chemotherapy drugs was stopped immediately, and it was found that about 10cc had entered into the drug end (the front end of the set was still saline).The doctor on duty was notified.After checking, the patient had no physical abnormalities, a new abbott pump set was replaced, and infusion continued until the end of chemotherapy.There was patient involvement but no patient/healthcare provider harm.
