It was reported while using bd alaris pump module smartsite texium infusion set there was a blockage.There was no report of patient impact.The following information was provided by the initial reporter:
they stated that their practice for administration of an ivp via this texium set has not changed during this trial with optima being used at the distal access port of the set for an ivp.Prior to optima they used a texium bonded ivp syringe for administration.Xxx reached out to the primary rn for the exact details.This is what they stated, ¿i noticed the drip rate had slowed down and when i started pushing the drug, the drip had completely stopped and the drug would starting back up the y-site towards the pump.I didn¿t do the pinch line method for this because of how slow the carrier fluid was flowing.Once the line was slightly clear, i would then pinch the line and check for blood return.With the second syringe, i noticed the pressure to push the drug would increase when the syringe was close to being halfway empty (like maybe 10mls left).At one point, i pushed the drug a little too hard and the patient reported feeling pressure at his port site.The patient¿s port site was assessed and drug/fluid was not noted but they did report the sensation of feeling something wet.With the last two syringes, we decided to run the carrier fluid through the pump at 250mls/hr and would pause the pump and check blood return using that method.¿
their concern was that the optima components was stopping the infusion flow during the ivp.I provided education regarding using the alaris iv set for ivp administration and that they should be clamping the line during the push procedure so that drug moves down the line and not up the line which can cause issues with the pump segment if the line is not clamped.Also, the drug they were pushing was very viscous.I am not sure whether or not they fully engaged the texium component to the patient's access port.
