MAUDE report 24276481 ↗MalfunctionAug 4, 2022Material Separation; Material Separation
LAST YEAR WE HAD A PATIENT DISCHARGED WITH A FASCIA ILIACA HOME CATHETER FOR A HIP PROCEDURE. THE PATIENT WAS A MUSCULAR HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE, 80KG. WE TYPICALLY REMOVE CATHETERS WHILE THE PATIENT IS AT HOME VIA TELEHEALTH. FROM WHAT I CAN RECALL , THE PATIENT WAS STANDING AND HAD HIS BACK TOWARDS THE CAMERA FOR MODESTY. HIS MOTHER THEN PULLED TO REMOVE THE CATHETER AND EXPERIENCED SOME RESISTANCE BUT CONTINUED TO PULL UNTIL IT WAS REMOVED. WE ALWAYS CONFIRM THE TIP OF THE CATHETER, BUT FOR THIS PATIENT IT APPEARED AS THOUGH THE TIP WAS BROKEN (NO BLACK TIP). THE CATHETER ITSELF ALSO APPEARED EXTREMELY STRETCHED (THE WIRE REINFORCEMENT WAS VISIBLY STRETCHED) AND WE ARE UNABLE TO DETERMINE EXACTLY HOW MUCH CATHETER MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE BEEN RETAINED. ONE OPERATING THEORY IS THAT THE CATHETER SOMEHOW KNOTTED INSIDE THE SKIN. WE ARRANGED US AND X-RAY STUDIES TO DETERMINE IF WE COULD SEE ANY REMAINING CATHETER OR THE WIRE REINFORCEMENT WHICH ALL CAME BACK NORMAL. THE PATIENT IS NOT EXPERIENCING ANY LINGERING EFFECTS OF THE NERVE BLOCK OR ANY DISCOMFORT AT THE INSERTION SITE. WE HAVE HAD MANY DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THIS CASE INTERNALLY, HOWEVER, WE HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT WITH THIS PATIENT UP
