Event Description
|
The customer reported that during an infusion for a ct procedure using a medrad power injector, the maxzero connector caused the infusion to not flow as expected from the medrad tubing to the patient¿s diffusics iv catheter, and the user stated that the line was ¿pressuring out on any injections requiring 4.0 ml/sec.¿ the patency of the iv catheter prior to the infusion and the gauge of the iv catheter were not provided.The ct tech theorized that the inhibition of flow caused an infiltration of the medication out of the patient¿s vein.The procedure was stopped and rescheduled after the event.No other effect to the patient was reported, and the products were not saved.
