Event Description
|
Situation: patient has had multiple events where the lipid tubing fails to drip background: patient is receiving total parenteral nutrition (tpn)/lipids.The lipids go through the new special filtered tubing.At least 6 times for this patient, the tubing on the lipids continue to beep off occluded even though the tpn running through the same lumen does not beep off.After trouble shooting, we find out there is no occlusion.Action: we have then noticed that the lipids will not even continue to drip and ultimately new tubing has to be primed with the lipids and restart them again.Recommendation: looking into seeing if there is a defect in the tubing that is causing it to malfunction.The device was disposed of by rn.There was no detectable harm in this event.
