Event Description
Rn had a needle stick injury from a syringe with needle that no one on the unit could identify readily.After investigation we compared it to another lovenox auto shield injection and realized it was the inside of one of those devices.Basically after deploying the safety device the entire inside of the device fell out landed in the bed and was later the cause of the needle stick.When i pulled a new one out of the pyxis to compare, the packaging broke right in the middle of the device.This happened when i separated one from the rest of the sheet of them.I do believe the way these tear off the sheet is what caused the damage to the syringe and ultimately lead to it coming apart.
