Detailed incident description: "during the insertion of the peripheral venous catheter (pvc), the patient experienced a sharp jolt.Upon removal of the pvc, it became apparent that the needle had severed the catheter tubing¿surely this should not happen"? response received on 6/2/2026 nurse wrote: "the patient told me that she felt a kind of pinching sensation in the vein, which startled her; this was noticeable from her posture and reaction." after removal, the entire catheter length was intact.The needle punctured the catheter.Was additional medical intervention/medication required? if yes, please explain no.
