Choosing and Installing the Moog Curlin Infusion Administration Set
A number of distinctively designed Moog Curlin Infusion administration sets are available to
deliver each prescription accurately. (See Moog Curlin Infusion Product Catalog. ) Each set is
designed to meet the requirements of specific therapies. Therefore, if a basic bag-spike set or a set
with a medication reservoir is needed, with or without air eliminating filters, etc., there are several
configurations from which to choose. Follow the healthcare provider’s protocols for preparing the
medication and the administration set before loading the set into the pump, remembering the
following basic rules:
1. Examine the packaging and the administration set before use to assure the package integrity.
Do not use the set if the protective caps are dislodged or if the package integrity is breached, as
fluid path sterility cannot be guaranteed under those circumstances.
2. Notice that there is an instructional insert included in the administration set package. This
insert includes written and graphic instructions for proper installation of the administration set
into the pump. It also lists the “fill volume” of the administration set. Allow for the amount of
the fill volume when determining the final IV bag volume.
Gravity Priming Set and Filter
1. To gravity prime the administration set, twist and remove the breakaway tab from the Integral
Flow-Stop, then spike the IV bag. Squeeze the Integral Flow-Stop between your thumb and
forefinger to allow fluid to flow through the tubing until all air is removed from the IV bag and
administration set (see figures 2.5 and 2.6). Release the Integral Flow-Stop to automatically
clamp the tubing.
To correctly prime a filtered set, hold the filter in a vertical position with
the flow downwards and allow the filter to completely fill with fluid.
Note: Administration sets with integral anti-siphon valves cannot be gravity primed.
2. Close the slide clamp on the administration set before the door of the pump is opened.
This step along with the automatic clamping properties of the Integral Flow-Stop prevents
inadvertent fluid flow.
3. Use an administration set with an air-eliminating filter whenever the Air-In-Line Sensor is
disabled or set to OFF.
4. Follow CDC guidelines or Intravenous Nursing Standards of Practice Guidelines regarding the
frequency of changing the administration sets.
5. Use aseptic technique and universal precautions as directed by the policies of your healthcare
facility or institution.
6. Use only Moog Curlin Infusion administration sets with the Moog Curlin Infusion pump.
7. Dispose of administration sets in accordance with all applicable regulatory and institutional
policies and directions.
