Event Description

The event involved a admin set, pur, clave¿ where it was reported, before the realization of the proton emission tomography (tep) of the patient, a radiopharmaceutical product: [18f] - fluorodeoxyglucose is injected using a tubing from icu medical company.At 14:37, the activity of fdg to be injected is 230 mbq.At 16:20, the residual activity measured in the tubing is 45 mbq.Therefore, considering the radioactive decay of 18-fdg, this means that approximately 86 mbq out of 230 mbq were not injected, which is 37,4% of the intended activity to be injected.The following clinical consequences reported were altered quality of the images of the tep scan, complicating the medical diagnosis.There's an increased patient dosimetry due to the necessity for repeating the examination.For the actions taken for the patient regarding the device, a new consultation was scheduled for the patient to conduct a new imagining examination through tep, considering the alteration of the image's quality from the first examination, using a tubing with the same reference.There was patient involvement, unknown adverse events/human harm.
