Additional Manufacturer Narrative
An outside of the united states (ous) customer contacted a siemens customer care center (ccc).A blockage was found in the centering collar of the advia 2120i hematology system with dual aspirate autosampler, which caused aspirated fluid to be sprayed upward rather than through the needle.The customer was not wearing proper personal protective equipment (ppe) when investigating this issue, which is why the aspirate went into the customer's eye.Siemens is investigating the issue.
 
Event or Problem Description
The customer was splashed in the eye with mixture of blood and reagent after opening the autosampler safety shield of the customer's advia 2120i hematology system with dual aspirate autosampler.The customer had noticed that the samples coming out of the system were contaminated with blood and reagent, which is what prompted the customer to open the safety shield.A safety visor was not readily available to wear when investigating the problem, leading to aspirate going into customer's eye.The customer followed first aid protocol by washing their eye with warm water and went to the emergency department.The customer was put on a 28 day course prophylactic treatment for blood borne viruses as a precautionary measure.There are no known reports of adverse health consequences due to this event.
