It was reported that on (b)(6) 2025, at approximately 9:00 a.M., a nurse was administering meropenem to a recovering patient for anti-inflammatory purposes when the patient's family notified the nurse on duty of a micro pump alarm at approximately 9:30 a.M.The patient's family was notified of the alarm.Upon inspection, the patient's peripherally cannulated central venous catheter (picc) was cosmetically intact and unbroken, but it was unable to pump back blood, and fluids could not be advanced during flushing.The nurse immediately replaced the picc catheter accessory, pumped back blood, and confirmed that the catheter was back in place.No harm was caused to the patient.
