I HAVE TWO PATIENT SAFETY REPORTS FOR THIS PRODUCT. PLEASE SEE DETAILS BELOW. WE ARE TRYING TO DETERMINE WHAT THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION IS FOR STAFF MOVING FORWARD. THANKS, (B)(6). PT NEEDED A DOSE OF THE LONG ACTING INSULIN FROM THE REZVOGLAR KWIKPEN. SCREWED ON THE AUTOSHIELD NEEDLE, PRIMED AND TWISTED TO THE AMOUNT TO GIVE. WHEN GIVING THE PEN WOULD NOT GIVE ALL THE INSULIN DIALED TO GIVE. TOOK NEEDLE OFF AND SCREWED ON A NEW NEEDLE, PRIMED AND ATTEMPTED TO GIVE THE REST. PEN STILL WOULD NOT GIVE ALL THE INSULIN. UNSCREWED THAT NEEDLE AND NOTICED THERE WAS A NEEDLE STUCK IN THE RUBBER STOPPER OF THE KWIKPEN. THE ORIGINAL AUTOSHIELD NEEDLE WAS BENT AND THE SECOND WAS MISSING. SHOWED THE KWIKPEN TO THE PHARMACIST AND WAS DISPOSED OF PROPERLY. A NEW PEN WAS REQUESTED FROM PHARMACY. PROVIDER AND BEDSIDE NURSE WAS NOTIFIED. PATIENT WAS AWARE OF THE SITUATION. (B)(6). THE PATIENT HAD 40 UNITS OF LONG ACTING INSULIN DUE. RN PRCEEDED TO ATTACH A AUTOSHIELD DUO NEEDLE TO THE HUB OF THE RESVOGLAR KWIKPEN. RN PRIMED THE NEEDLE WITH 2 UNITS AND THEN TURNED THE DIAL TO 40 AND DOUBLE SIGNED WITH ANOTHER RN. PRIMARY RN PROCEEDED TO GIVE THE RESVOGLAR KWIKPEN AND WHEN INJECTING THE PATIENT, THE NEEDLE PIERCED THE SKIN AND THE DIAL WAS PUSHED TO 20UNITS WHEN IT WOULD NOT PUSH ANY FURTHER. PRIMARY RN REPEATED THE STEPS OF PRIMING ANOTHER NEEDLE TO GIVE RAMINING 20 UNITS OF INSULIN BUT STILL WOULD NOT ADMINISTER. WHEN TAKING OFF THE SECOND NEEDLE, THE RN WAS SPRAYED WITH INSULIN DUE TO PRESSURE BUILD-UP IN THE INSULIN CHAMBER. CHARGE RN AND PHARMACIST WAS NOTIFIED AND REMAINING 20 UNITS OF RESVOGLAR INSULIN WAS GIVEN USING A NEW RESVOGLAR KWIKPEN. NOTES - NO IMAGES WERE PROVIDED BY CUSTOMER.
