    ALLEGEDLY, APPROXIMATELY 2/3 OF THE WAY INTO A TURP PROCEDURE, THE ENDOMAT SUCTION PUMP WAS HOOKED UP; HOWEVER, THE PUMP TUBING WAS PLACED INCORRECTLY INTO THE PUMP, RESULTING IN THE FLUID INSIDE THE CANNISTER TO BE PUMPED BACK INTO THE PATIENT'S BLADDER. THIS CAUSED OVER-DISTENSION, INCREASED PRESSURE, AND FLUID RETENTION. POST-OP, THE PATIENT WAS KEPT IN ICU FOR A LONGER TIME THAN PLANNED TO MONITOR THE FLUID RETENTION CONDITION. THE PATIENT HAS BEEN RELEASED, AND HOSPITAL CONFIRMED THERE IS NO LONG-TERM IMPACT TO THE PATIENT.
