Description of Event or Problem · 1

ONE OF OUR ORTHOPEDIC PHYSICIANS ATTEMPTED TO INJECT A PT WITH ORTHOVISC IN THEIR JOINT, HOWEVER, WHILE ADMINISTERING THE INJECTION, HALF OF THE MEDICATION CAME OUT THE SIDE OF THE SYRINGE NEAR WHERE THE NEEDLE CONNECTS, BUT NOT DIRECTLY AT THAT JOINT (THE OTHER HALF WAS INJECTED INTO THE PT). A FEW OF OUR ORTHOPEDIC SURGEONS HAVE SAID THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THEM WITH THE PAST YEAR, BUT NOT RECENTLY.
