WE HAVE JUST HAD AN INCIDENT OF A MIDWIFE RECEIVING ELECTRICAL SHOCK WHILE SWITCHING A MERIDIAN 800 FETAL MONITOR ON. THE SWITCH IS AT THE BCAK OF THE MACHINE. MDA AND HSE HAVE BEEN INFORMED. WHEN WE TESTED THE MONITOR, IT PASSED ALL THE SAFETY CHECKS. WE HAVE LEFT IT FOR MDA TO INVESTIGATE.
HAVE YOU HAD A SIMILAR INCIDENT?
