Event Description
|
It was reported that during induction of anesthesia a "popping" sound occurred and blood leaked through the port with a bd venflon¿ pro safety shielded iv catheter.The following information was provided by the initial reporter: during induction of anesthesia via the drug port of a freshly inserted 14g bd venflon pro safety, a 'popping' sensation was felt followed by the immediate free flow of blood back through the drug port on the removal of the syringe.The blood flow did not stop with closure of the orange cap and only stopped with manual occlusion of the drug port with gauze and pressure.The patient lost a small volume of blood (<50mls) and some of the induction drugs may have been lost along with the blood.The cannula had to be removed so the patient had a second cannulation that would have been unnecessary otherwise.

H.6.Investigation: three photos and eight representative samples were received by our quality team for evaluation.The returned photos show the top web with batch number.The eight representative samples were subjected to visual inspection, valve injection test, and catheter adapter leak test.The eight representative samples passed the visual inspection and acceptance criteria on valve injection test and catheter adapter leak test.No abnormality was observed; therefore, the incident could not be verified.A device history record review found no non-conformances associated with this issue during production of this batch.Since all of the samples passed testing a probable root cause could not be determined.
