Event Description
|
Additional information was received indicating that the fact that the patient received less than the prescribed dose of opioid on their first night post operation did result in him having high severe pain.The pump was programmed to deliver a 0.5ml pca dose with a 5 minute lockout and no continuous rate.It was in progress for approximately 19 hours.The pump stated 77.7mls of the 100ml bag had been infused, however, 73mls remained in the bag.It was also reported that it took 22mls of fluid to prime the pca administration set (as opposed to the 3-4mls which is the usual amount it takes).Since this incident, the facility has had several lines that have taken up to 10mls to prime as they seem to fill with air.
