Event Description

Based on information received from the customer the patient reportedly thought the ice pack burst, the patient stated she ran into the shower and rinsed perineal area with water.Nurse lifted perineal pad from ground and found that solution was leaking in a steady stream from tear in pad.Nurse was wearing gloves and noted that the fluid was extremely cold.She immediately assessed patient¿s perineum and noted new blistering on pre-existing hemorrhoids.Blister was small, about 5 mm in diameter.Patient reported relief to baseline after rinsing in the shower; however, remained uncomfortable.Her perineum was already uncomfortable from tissue trauma from recent childbirth, so this is difficult to attribute to the blister alone.
