5.1.3 LOAD CASSETTE
To load the primed cassette into the Plum XL,
proceed as follows:
Open cassette door by lifting the
handle up.
Holding the primed cassette by its
handle, slide it into the cassette door
guides until it firmly seats in the door.
Close the cassette door. Confirm no
flow.
5.1.4 PREPARE SECONDARY LINE
CAUTION: Consult drug container labeling to
confirm drug compatibility, concentration,
delivery rates, and volumes are all suitable for
intermittent or continuous secondary, or
piggyback delivery mode.
Plum XL features a secondary or piggyback delivery
mode when patient infusion therapy requires
administering more than one drug.
In addition to standard containers, Plum XL uses
syringes or vials on the secondary port for piggyback
or secondary delivery. The secondary line can be
prepared without removing or repriming the
cassette.
