3.2.5 Supplies – Disposable Set
Do not apply alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or antiseptic containing alcohol
to the disposable set or to the cassette interface inside the door of the
cycler. Using these products can cause the cassette to develop cracks.
Using damaged sets can result in contamination of the fluid or fluid
pathways. Contamination of any portion of the fluid or fluid path can
result in peritonitis.
Do not use the disposable set more than once. Discard after each use.
Reusing the disposable set can increase the risk of contamination, which
can result in peritonitis.
Be sure to use the correct disposable set for your prescribed therapy.
Using the wrong disposable set can result in an inadequate therapy.
Check all disposable set connections for a secure fit before beginning your
therapy. Make sure all clamps on unused fluid lines are closed securely.
Contamination of any portion of the fluid path can result in peritonitis.
Before loading the disposable set, inspect the cassette and tubing for
damage. Using damaged sets can result in contamination of the fluid or
fluid pathways. Contamination of any portion of the fluid or fluid path can
result in peritonitis.
–
Inspect the flexible surfaces of the cassette for obvious signs of
damage, including cuts, tears, or punctures.
–
Ensure the tip protectors on the ends of the tubing are on and
unbroken. If damage is found, obtain a new disposable set and repeat
the inspection procedure.
–
Tubing indentations can be present on disposable sets due to the
flexible and supple nature of the tubing. Slight tubing indentations are
cosmetic and should have no impact on the functionality of the
product.
