Event Description
|
Peritoneal dialysis nurse requested a replacement liberty select cycler after reported that a peritoneal dialysis patient encountered a high manual drain after completing peritoneal dialysis treatment.Treatment data was provided and assessed for 150% and 180% iipv and did reveal an episode of increased intraperitoneal volume (iipv).The largest drain volume from this treatment occurred during drain (manual stat drain) where 4100ml drained.This drain is 205% of the prescribed fill volume.In order to be a reportable malfunction, at least 180% of the prescribed fill volume would have to have been drained.A 180% of fill volume 2000ml is 3600ml.Therefore, a reportable malfunction has occurred.Follow up with the peritoneal dialysis nurse indicates that the patient did not experience any complications as a result of the alleged event.Patient resumed treatment with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.The patient is scheduled to see a surgeon to determine if the drain complications are catheter related.The patient reportedly drains well when performing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.The liberty select was replaced.
