    Narratives

    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    ON 02/08/08, I SPOKE WITH THE RISK MGR WHO STATED: "THE EVENT OCCURRED BETWEEN 3 MONTHS RANGE IN 2007. THE REASON THAT THIS COMPLAINT WAS ONLY REFERRED TO YOUR COMPANY ON 2/4/08 IS BECAUSE SHE HAS ONLY BEEN IN THE RISK MANAGEMENT POSITION FOR TWO MONTHS AND WAS REQUESTED BY LEADERSHIP TO REPORT THIS NOW." SHE DID NOT HAVE A LOT OF INFO OTHER THAN THAT THE PT WAS ELDERLY AND DID NOT NEED A CHEST TUBE. SHE ALSO STATED THAT: "THE HOSP DID A ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS AND FOUND THAT THE NURSES WERE NOT USING LUBRICANT WITH THESE TUBES WHICH MAY HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE PNEUMOTHORAX."
