水銀洩漏地面收集

(http://bme.freebbs.tw 醫學工程論壇同步發表)

這不算是故障,而是插曲,算是工作上的插曲,也是我第一次碰到的。
通常水銀會洩漏都是因為水銀血壓計有問題,而漏在桌面上或是盒子裡,這樣對使用者或維修的人來說一張紙片就足以應付了,但今天的狀況是滿地開花!麻煩的是連地上瓷磚的小縫隙都有,真的很傷腦筋,這也凸顯出在醫院裡使用無縫地毯的需要性。

本來使用單位打電話下來只說水銀漏了,很自然的回答請她們用紙片鏟起來,用小瓶子裝好送下來集中。結果不一會兒,有人打電話下來很義正詞嚴的說,你們怎會讓護理人員蹲在地上用紙收集水銀呢?水銀很毒呢,那麼多人在那踩來踩去的,會讓人中毒的,你們應該有什麼設備可以來清除水銀吧!

清除水銀?我們又不是每天碰到這種事,怎會有這種設備呢,就婉言回答,水銀會毒是因為變成水銀蒸氣吸入人體才會造成問題,目前是元素型態時,是不會有太多問題的,我們會上去看看,不過我們也是只能用紙去鏟!

到了現場,真的是傻眼,怎會有人把水銀灑滿地呢,當下請人都出去護理站,因為開空調,本來是應該停空調開窗通風的,但天氣太熱,估計一會就可以清除,所以就沒開窗通風,蹲在地上,真的是沒法用紙鏟,有的躲在縫中,根本耐它無法,想想只能用吸的,可是一般吸塵器會把水銀打碎並且會經過排氣變成水銀蒸氣,那更慘哦,突然靈機一動,跟理站要了小型的motor suction,平常用來抽痰的吸引器。

一般suction有緩衝瓶,不會直接吸入馬達,應該可以,借到了suction,用矽膠管壓著開始吸水銀了,真的很好用哦,而且吸進去的水銀因為緩衝瓶的作用,都收集在瓶中,再加上suction的空氣不會太熱,所以應該不會變成水銀蒸氣。連小縫裡都乾乾淨淨的,差不多連地板都吸乾淨囉,任務圓滿達成。

所以提供大家參考,可以用suction來吸水銀,記得吸力不要開太大,緩衝瓶高度要夠,以免水銀又飛濺出去那就不好了,千萬不要拿吸塵器直接吸,那真的會讓水銀無影無踪的。如果前面再加個緩衝瓶,那才可以哦。

一級回收 Stabilet Infant Warmer models 200, 300, 1250, 1500, 200/3000, 2000, 2200/3200, 3000, and 3200 [Dräeger/Hill-Rom]

己停產的設備,如果仍有在使用的,Drager己發通知請勿使用,也不要再轉賣或是捐贈

Stabilet Infant Warmer models 200, 300, 1250, 1500, 200/3000, 2000, 2200/3200, 3000, and 3200 [Dräeger/Hill-Rom]

Audience: Pediatric and Obstetric Healthcare professionals, hospital risk managers

[UPDATED 08/25/2009] FDA notified healthcare professionals of a Class 1 recall of these models of the Stabilet infant warmer because these out-of-date devices may cause serious injury to infants and caregivers due to the possibility that the warmer might be the ignition source for a fire. On July 20, 2009, Draeger sent a recall letter to all known customers, requested customers remove the affected devices from service, remove the heating element and the power cord to make the device unusable once removed from service and emphasized these devices are not to be used, donated or sold for any other purpose. Class I recalls are the most serious type of recall and involve situations in which there is a reasonable probability that use of these products will cause serious injury or death.

[Posted 07/22/2009] Draeger Medical and FDA notified healthcare professionals that it recommends the removal of Stabilet Infant Warmer models 200, 300, 1250, 1500, 200/3000, 2000, 2200/3200, 3000, and 3200 from service as soon as possible due to concern that continued use of these devices may result in serious injury to the patient and/or caregiver.  A January 2008 fire in a Minnesota neonatal unit injured an infant and an independent investigation concluded that the Hill-Rom Stabilet 1250 was likely the ignition source of the fire.  Draeger agrees with the recommendation to remove the referenced Stabilet models from service immediately.  Immediate actions required include:

  • Locate and identify the devices listed in this notice.
  • Remove the referenced devices from service as soon as possible.
  • Once removed from service, the warmers should be rendered unusable by removing the heating element and the power cord. These warmers should not be used or sold for any other purpose.
  • If an infant is currently receiving therapy from one of the referenced devices, consider the risk of moving the patient before changing to an alternative mode of therapy.

A recall notification is being sent out to all known current users and is available in the Draeger website at www.draeger.com/Stabilet.   Health care professionals and consumers should report serious adverse events (side effects) or product quality problems with the use of this product to Draeger Medical Systems Inc. or to the FDA's MedWatch Adverse Event reporting Program (www.fda.gov/medwatch/report.htm)

醫儀每日使用前查核

(http://bme.freebbs.tw 醫學工程論壇 同步發表)

勞安作業有對危險性設備及機械,所謂的自我點檢表,年定檢,醫儀的使用,有些使用用者只會用,很少也有的不大會去檢查設備使用前的狀態,甚至誇張點的連配件丟了都不知道,等出問題了,送修好像就沒事了,有時碰到遺失或碰撞損壞時,一查原因,大部份都是一攤二手,真的是很令人困擾。

因此,對於一些較昂貴或具臨床高風險的醫儀,日常的清潔保養的記錄,我思考加以擴大,以自我點檢的方式作基本的查核,以免有問題時,找不到原因及事主,同時,主管或醫工到單位稽核時,也可以依實際及記錄作事否落實。

目前思考中的設備有
昂貴性設備:超音波、內視鏡
高風險性設備:電擊器、高壓氧艙、化療配葯操作櫃

點檢表如附件,如果各位有類似的經驗,歡迎一起修訂討論哦
