Event Description

The event involved a chemoclave® vented vial spike, 13mm that was missing the filter on the device, and this defect was noted once the bottle is pierced to withdraw the dose.It was reported that the missing filter generated a flow at the filter location which lead to an unprotected chemotherapy exposure and also the loss of the content of the bottle during drug preparation.There was no patient involvement or delay in therapy as the issue was detected prior to patient use.The device was replaced with no further problem encountered.Although unspecified negative clinical consequences on the operator were reported, there was no report of harm or adverse event.
