Event Description

The event involved a transpac¿ it monitoring kit, 60" pressure tubing, 3ml flush device, macrodrip.The reporter stated that the transducer looked like it had a wrong calibration when it was calibrated correctly.The device was reading a high pressure (280/170), but the blood pressure cuff on the patient was reading approximately 120 systolic.The waveform was good.It looked like it was not calibrated, but it had just been calibrated.The patient was treated with anesthetic and esmolol based on the high pressure readings.The provider set up another arterial line and put it on the patient.The readings on the new line correlated with the blood pressure cuff.There was patient involvement, but no harm was reported.This is the first of two reported events.
