“Health care professionals dropped the syringe – spiked patient’s eye”
“the Syringe was dropped when it would be handed over to the surgeon. “
” instead of plastic surgery had the patient to long-term care at an eye clinic.nSjukhuset has now registered itself.”
“At the beginning of the year would a patient undergo a smaller plastic surgery procedures at the Sahlgrenska university hospital. But something went wrong — the nursing staff dropped a syringe with anesthetic – straight into the patient’s eye.”
“the Syringe fell unhappily down on the lid and there was a hemorrhage,” says Björn Andersson, chefläkare at the Sahlgrenska university hospital, Göteborgs posten. “
“the Syringe that went straight through the eyelid damaged eye cornea, after which a bleeding occurred. “
“the hospital has, according to the Lex Maria, notified the incident to the Inspection of health and social care, IVO.”
“– It was the multiple visits and additional care at a new clinic as a result of the incident, continues Björn Andersson.”
“Now sharpens the hospital routines for the assistance of stabbing or cutting objects, so that these continue to not be dropped. “
