Preventing Medical Line Entanglement and Tubing Misconnections: Best Practices and Strategies

In this webinar, we discuss the importance of preventing medical line entanglement and tubing misconnections and the risks it poses to patient safety.

Medical line entanglement is a serious safety concern in healthcare settings, and it can lead to significant harm to patients. During this webinar, we provide an overview of what medical line entanglement is and how it can occur. We discuss the dangers and risks of medical line entanglement and how to prevent it.

We explain how the Beata Clasp, a medical line organizer, can help prevent medical line entanglement along with tubing misconnections. We highlight our product due to its mobility when transferring a patient, latex-free, and being free of adhesive. This hospital cord organizer triggers the prompt to do line tracing from patient to the source, preventing misconnections and medication errors. Other benefits of using an organizer include keeping lines off the floor and preventing falls.

We discuss the importance of patient involvement in their care, and how using a medical line organizer can encourage patients to be more aware of their lines and notify staff if they perceive any changes. We also touch on the importance of having policies and procedures in place to manage medical line entanglement in your healthcare facility.

If the Joint Commission rounded today and asked what steps your hospital is taking to manage medical line entanglement, we recommend answering by explaining how your goal is to prevent medical line entanglement in the first place. We suggest explaining how you manage tubing, lines, and drains at the bedside with a medical line organizer such as the Beata Clasp. Additionally, we recommend sharing how you have guidelines, policies, or procedures in place for medical line entanglement to ensure consistent messaging for all units of the hospital.

We hope you find the ideas in this video helpful. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you.
