Event Description
|
The event involved a 9¿ smallbore ext set, clave, clamps, rotating luer, that was attached to a b.Braun medical, inc, microbore extension set, that the customer reported involved a baby in the neonatal intensive care unit that had an image guided therapy peripherally inserted central catheter (igt picc) with a dacron cuff placed for long term anti-viral treatment at another facility.At an unspecified time, after the infusion of ganciclovir was completed, the port was flushed with 0.9% sodium chloride.Approximately one hour later, blood was noted to be on the linen and the silicone center of the clave was noted to be depressed.The customer reported that it was unclear when the clave became depressed, either with the medication infusion or saline flush stating that there was not an obvious defect of the clave seen until the depressed silicone center became evident.The picc was reported to be cuffed and was unable to be removed for safety/infection prevention measures.There was an estimated blood loss of 3ml, followed by a clot forming in a different clave attached to the end of the picc.The clave and t-piece were replaced and the line was flushed.The picc line was left insitu.There was no patient injury, no medical intervention was required.
