Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that the iv was test flushed with saline by hand and then again with the power injector with no issues.During the test bolus, the iv became disconnected and leaked all over the patient and the table.The ct tech had to "take all of the tape, the connector and the blue locking piece off of the iv hub, and attach their own connector to the iv." then the ct tech cleaned up the patient and the table and the scan was completed.This caused a delay in patient care and held up our scan room longer than usual.No patient injury was reported.

Additional Manufacturer Narrative

The following were reviewed as part of this investigation: patient severity, frequency analysis, applicable previous investigation(s), sample (if available), applicable fmea documents, labeling, and applicable manufacture records.Based on a review of this information, the following was concluded: the complaint that the extension set disconnected from the iv catheter was inconclusive due to the sample condition.One extension set from a statlock kit was returned for investigation.The disconnected iv was not returned.A functional test revealed that the extension set could be securely attached to an unused catheter hub.The extension set and catheter were flushed with water and were patent to infusion.Upon pressurizing the connection, no leaks were observed in any part of the extension set.The manner in which the device was used was unknown.It is possible that the connection was under-tightened.It is unknown if the disconnected iv catheter was a factor in the complaint.Since the problem could not be replicated and since the disconnected catheter was not returned, the complaint was inconclusive.A lot history review (lhr) of jucqx039 showed ten other similar product complaint(s) from this lot number.The complaints for this lot number (jucqx039) have been reported from the same facility.
