Different fluid bags are used for either CVVHD or CVVHDF with citrate anticoagulation. Ensure to always follow the protocol and prescription carefully when setting up and changing fluid bags on the OMNI. - Page 6 SET UP Frangible pins: ensure to make sure all pins on fluid bags are broken correctly. If there is a flow problem/pump failure/solution pressure/empty priming bag related alarm, this COULD be caused by unbroken or partially broken pins, please always double check that they are fully broken. All scales are separate and do not need to be balanced.

PRIMING Prior to priming: ensure all unused clamps are closed and all used are open before pressing Automatic Priming.

This can be done during priming, or prior to the patient being put onto the OMNI. Be careful not to move the machine during priming to avoid any errors. It is important to ensure the Calcium Chloride and Citrate used adhere to the concentrations set on the OMNI to ensure the volumes being delivered by the machine are correct. -
Page 9: Prior To Start Of Therapy
PRIOR TO START OF THERAPY RINSING If we need to re-prime the red/access and blue/return lines with saline following initial priming then we do this by rinsing. Attach a new bag of saline to the red access line where the priming bag is and enter the amount needed to rinse. RECIRCULATION We can recirculate prior to commencing therapy. -

It can additionally trigger when there is a discolouration of the effluent (for example from high bilirubin levels), if you are satisfied that this is the reason you can press ‘temporary override’, causing...
- Page 13 COMMON TROUBLESHOOTING DURING THERAPY BLOOD IN THE ARTERIAL (RED) PRESSURE LINE This is due to stops in the blood pump/low blood flow causing a back flow of blood from the arterial/access line.

- Page 14 The OMNI cannot run successfully if the access is poor. Several blood pump or therapy stops will cause the OMNI to clot. Ensure not to press the ‘BLOOD PUMP’ and ‘THERAPY’ buttons on and off when in therapy. Ensure anticoagulation is appropriate.
- Page 15 COMMON TROUBLESHOOTING DURING THERAPY SOLUTION CHAMBER REGULATION FAILURE The most common reason for this alarm is due to a pin not broken properly on the dialysate bag or there is a clamp left on, causing a level regulation problem in the solution chamber. Check the pin and clamps and reset the alarm, it can take 2 or 3 alarm resets for the dialysate fluid level to resolve, giving it time to flow through the warmer bag to the solution chamber.

Page 16: Temporary Disconnection And Recirculation
TEMPORARY DISCONNECTION AND RECIRCULATION This is for when the patient will be off the OMNI for a short period.

Page 18: Ending Therapy
ENDING THERAPY For ending the therapy return blood as stated following all steps in turn, reading the screen carefully and ensuring again to only press the end therapy button when ready to do so to avoid the blood clotting prior to blood return. If ending therapy due to being unable to continue therapy (for example access issues), the machine will only return blood if it is able to do so, it does not return clotted blood. - Page 19 OUR MISSION We develop EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS GUIDING STANDARDS for the healthcare system in a CONSTRUCTIVE DIALOGUE with our customers and partners.
