It was reported that micro ext set w/1 ss vlv tubing had air in the line.The following information was provided by the initial reporter: material no.: 10010983, lot no.: 20055744.It was reported that there was an occlusion withhin the tubing sets.Verbatim: i was trying to draw blood from my pt's picc line.It flushed well.I was able to draw up my waste without difficulty.But then it started drawing up air into my 3ml syringe.It filled the entire t-piece with air.I did not want to flush the air into my patient so i left everything as it was and paged iv therapy to come assess the line immediately.When iv therapy nurse took down the dressing, there was no visible crack, hole or loose connection.The blue part of the picc line (catheter) is filled with blood all the way up to the hub.She discarded the old t-piece and replaced with a new one that was flushed with saline.However, the line now would not flush or draw so she had to tpa the line.
