Event Description
|
It was reported that nine hours into continuous renal replacement therapy (crrt) using a prismaflex m100, the nurse observed a large amount of bright red blood on the crrt machine and on the floor in front of the machine.The nurse also observed that the tube that connects to the top of the filter was broken off of the prismaflex m100 filter.This was noted to have happened 20 minutes prior to discovery since nurse had been in the room performing other tasks prior.There was also a large amount of air noted in the tubing.Treatment was stopped and the machine was disconnected without blood return.Blood loss was reported to be 150 cc.It was reported that there had not been any significant changes to the settings on the machine or the fluid removal rate from the settings through the entire shift.There was no visible air in the lines closest to the patient.A new filter set was placed and crrt was started without further complications.There was no patient injury or medical intervention associated with this event.No additional information is available.
