Event Description
We received a new lot of bd normal saline flush syringes 10 ml (8290-3065-46) which had a new 3d/qr reader style barcode.We are on epic and do bedside barcode scanning and were not initially able to get this barcode to read despite multiple attempts (per their report 5 or more attempts by 3 nurses).Nursing then decided to stop using the barcode scanning feature and after about 40 attempts, we were able to get it to read in the pharmacy, but were not consistently able to recreate the scan.After another 5 mins of trial and error, we determined the scanner must be pointed at the top quarter of the barcode and the syringe oriented vertically (not horizontally) to get this to read properly.While nursing education has been provided, we feel this creates an unneeded safety issue moving forward and would like to see if (b)(4) can petition the mfr to return to the linear/2d barcode.(b)(4).Email: [email protected].Access number: (b)(4).
