4.6 x 6.0 inches (140 mm x 197 mm)
access port without using a filter can contaminate fluids or tissues and result in local
or systemic infection.
Preliminary procedures
Gather the following sterile equipment:
From the appropriate catheter access port kit:
▪
Extension tubing set with clamp
▪
0.22-µm (micron) filter
▪
10-mL empty syringe (for aspirating in intraspinal applications)
▪
Fenestrated drape
▪
Appropriate template and noncoring needle
▪
The template and needle are pump-specific. Match the name on the template with the
name of the pump. Match the color and gauge of the needle to the color and gauge
indicated on the template.
Locally supplied:
▪
Syringe containing prescribed fluid (10 mL minimum)
▪
Syringe with 5 mL saline (for flushing if desired)
▪
Cleansing agent
▪
Sterile gloves
▪
Alcohol pads or swabs
▪
Adhesive bandage, optional
Preparing the access site
1. Identify the pump model, reservoir volume, and location of the reservoir fill port and
catheter access port.
2. Prepare the injection site by cleansing the area.
3. Open the kit and glove packages. Put on the sterile gloves.
4. Place the drape, exposing the pump site.
5. Place the template over the pump, aligning the edges of the template with the edges of
the pump. Locate the catheter access port septum. The catheter access port is located
near the edge of the pump, not in the center of the pump.
Intraspinal applications only
w
Warning: During intraspinal applications, before injecting fluids through the catheter
access port, aspirate approximately 1- 2 mL from the catheter. A significant amount of
drug may be present in the catheter access port and catheter, and failure to remove the
drug during catheter access port injections can result in a clinically significant or fatal
drug overdose.
