Event or Problem Description
The surgery center reported a cataract patient had an unplanned suture placed on incision and was presented with corneal opacification and pain resulting in medical treatment outside the normal regime.A description of the event is that after the anterior capsule incision was created, the sound of the tubing pack ejecting was heard from the whitestar signature phaco system; the system proceeded to the end of the procedure and shut down.At the same moment, there was a burnt odor.Although, there was no visible smoke, the decision was made to complete the procedure using a backup machine.A 3-hour delay was reported while waiting for a backup system to arrive at the site location.The incision was temporarily closed while waiting for the machine arrival.Follow up was provided: on the day of procedure, the surgeon thought it was a potential risk for patient injury.However, on the day 1 postoperatively, it turned out the patient was well, the surgeon was relieved.It was explained the opacification was due to the dried epithelium, which caused pain in eye on the day of procedure.However, on the day 1 postoperatively, the patient did not claim pain, and the outcome seemed well.
