Oxygen tank flow meter cap bursts, injures female attendant at Trivandrum medical college
Thiruvananthapuran (PTI): A female attendant in the casualty department of the government medical college here suffered a head injury after the cap of an oxygen cylinder flow meter burst and hit her forehead, hospital authorities said on Friday.
The incident occurred around 1 am and no one else was injured, a hospital spokesperson said.
The female attendant is fine now, he said, adding that she probably did not handle the equipment properly which led to the incident.
A similar incident had occurred at the medical college in May last year when a 21-year-old anaesthesia technician working at the hospital suffered a head injury when an oxygen cylinder flow meter he was trying to remove detached improperly and struck his forehead.
