The nurse in the neuro intensive care unit opened a convenience kit for the physician to use on a pt at the bedside.When they pulled out the contents of the 1104hmc, there was no hm catheter or ventricular drainage system.Instead, there was a parenchymal catheter.The cranial access kit was there, as expected, but it was basically the contents of a 1104bc convenience kit instead of a 1104hmc as it was labeled.This caused a delay in the procedure as they had to go to another unit in the hosp to get a replacement kit.They threw away everything but the unopened cranial access kit.Additional info has been requested.
