Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that picc was placed on an extremely large patient back on (b)(6).It was discontinued and around the 8cm mark the picc was fractured.I suspect the line was kinked in the arm due to patient's habitus.It is possible that a clinician attempted to restore patency with an inappropriately sized syringe if/when resistance was met.The line was removed prior to completion of therapy and a short pivc was placed to facilitate the last dose of abx.No other information was provided.
