## Narrative

Employee was cutting slusher cable and a barb from the cable flew off and went into his hand between the two middle knuckles,  like a sliver.  We sent him to doctor to make sure nothing was in the hand.  Doctor looked & cut into hand to make sure it was clear of a metal sliver. 1 suture was required.  He has a full release to return to work.
