WARNING
• Secondary applications require the
use of a check valve set on the
primary IV line.
• The secondary solution container
must be higher than the primary
solution container.
• The secondary VTBI settings
require consideration of variables;
such as, factory overfill and
medication additions.
Underestimating the volume causes
the remaining secondary solution to
be infused at the primary rate;
overestimating results in the primary
solution being infused at the
secondary rate. Multiple doses from
a single container are not possible.
• The clamp on the secondary
administration set must be opened. If
the clamp is not opened, the fluid is
delivered from the primary container.
• The secondary administration set
must be primed prior to beginning
the secondary infusion.
• Verify that the secondary systems
are properly set up, to ensure that
there is a proper flow.
