Pack and Wear Pouch
Warning:
Before packaging the drug/fluid bag and pump into the pouch,
check the fluid path for kinks, closed clamp or other occlusions. An undetected
occlusion may result in under-infusion or non-delivery of medication and cause
an undesirable outcome.
Open the pump pouch and place it flat on a table.
Open the Velcro strap, position the pump against the clear window with the
display screen facing out, and then close the Velcro straps tightly to hold the
pump securely in the window.
Place the drug/fluid bag in the bag chamber with the bag spike pointing left.
Fold the bag spike over the top of the medicine bag and route the upstream
end of the tubing between drug/fluid bag and pump carefully so that the tubing
does not have kinks or occlusions.
Route the downstream end of the tubing carrying fluid to the patient through the
tubing outlet. Close the pouch cover and zip closed.
Secure the pouch around the patient’s waist or over the patient’s shoulder. The
carry strap may be adjusted for size.
Caution:
Leave the pump inside the carry pouch at all times except for
programming, loading and unloading the cassette/administration set, or
troubleshooting.
