    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    THE SIGMA SPECTRUM PUMP WAS INFUSING DOBUTAMINE IV-A 500 ML BAG. WHEN THE MEDICATION WAS INITIATED AT 11:20AM 2 NURSES CHECKED THE IV, PUMP PROGRAMMING AND MEDICATION DOSAGE. THE MEDICATION WAS TO RUN 1.3 ML/HR. APPARENTLY 2/3 OF THE IV INFUSED INTO THE PT, THE PT HAD A CARDIAC ARREST AT 11:48AM, AND WAS SUCCESSFULLY RESUSCITATED BUT THERE WAS ONLY 50CC LEFT IN THE 500ML IV BAG AT THAT TIME. WE ARE ASSUMING THIS "MAY" HAVE BEEN A PUMP MALFUNCTION.
