Infusion Pump Tubing Setup
LABORIE Infusion Pump Tubing is intended for single use only. Do not re-use, reprocess, or
resterilize pump tubing. Use of the Infusion Pump Tubing outside of its intended use may
affect pump accuracy. Do not run the pump at a speed exceeding the limitation of the
catheter.
IMPORTANT
:
Always use only LABORIE Infusion Pump Tubing to ensure a properly and
accurately functioning system.
Catheters, the saline bag, and the Infusion Pump Tubing are consumables intended
for single use with a single patient only; they must be replaced after every use.
To maintain patient safety during normal use, the maximum pump speed is preset
to 150ml/min.
Always refer to the Instructions for Use provided with the consumable deployed for
information on proper use of the device.

Scan the SmartSense tag, located on the packaging, against the reader located on
the NXT Go Pump Hub by holding proximity for 3 seconds. Refer to the
section

Open the pump door and position the compressible portion of the pump tubing
across the rollers; close the pump door.
NOTE:
Do not stretch the compressible portion of the pump tubing during insertion as
the pump controls the tautness of the tubing insert.
