Liberty Select Cycler Purpose
Your Liberty Select Cycler helps your body to do the work
of your kidneys. Your cycler pumps dialysate (a cleansing
solution used to draw waste products and extra fluids out of
your blood) into your empty peritoneal cavity (Fill phase).
There it absorbs waste through your body's natural
membrane, the peritoneum, over a set amount of time
(Dwell phase). When that time is completed, your cycler
drains the waste from your body (Drain phase). Your
machine repeats this as often as your doctor or practitioner
prescribes. All dialysate and waste pass through a
disposable sterile tubing set that is discarded after each
treatment.
This User's Guide features treatment walkthroughs for each
type of dialysis therapy. Please read the entire User's
Guide to learn about the features of your Liberty Select
Cycler before beginning your treatment. For a summary of
the types of therapy, please see page 137.
