NPSA alertIn March 2007 the NPSA issued a patient safety alert that looks at the issue of promoting safer injections. One of the key recommendations from the alert is for the NHS and the independent sector to “Undertake a risk assessment of injectable medicine procedures and products in all clinical areas to identify high risks, and develop an action plan to minimise them”.

Is it now the time to include saline flushes in this risk assessment… I hope so.
