Event or Problem Description
|
|
Nurse educator on round observed that 20 g nexiva is leaking from y-port in a chemotherapy ward while flushing possibly due to mechanical error or faulty cannula.After inserting another cannula, no such incidence recorded.Safety issue: as the incident happened in chemo ward, this could happen while administering the highly vesicant chemo drugs and not just flush.However, the event was not fatal, but surely a near miss as it came in the eyes of management as well as clinicians.
