Develop a conventional insulin injection or medication replace-
ment plan with your healthcare professional if any part of the infu-
sion system fails or system supplies are depleted.
If these instructions are not followed there is a risk of incorrect
delivery of insulin. Seek immediate medical assistance if you have
any health concerns.
Avoid bending or breaking the cannula / introducer needle.
A broken needle can remain stuck in the body or remain com-
pletely under the skin and may require surgical removal.
For Healthcare Professionals: Avoid recapping or destroy-
ing the introducer needle. Recapping or destroying the intro-
ducer needle can lead to accidental sharps injury which can
transmit serious infections. Healthcare professionals must fol-
low the specific directions of local policies for healthcare per-
sonnel when using infusion sets, including directions for recap-
ping and disposing. Seek immediate medical assistance if you
receive a sharps injury.
Caution (please note)
• Change the infusion site regularly in accordance with your health-
care professional's recommendations. If this is not done, you risk
infusion site infection, insulin resistance and / or lipohypertrophy.
• Consult your healthcare professional to choose the correct
cannula length. Your healthcare professional can provide re-
commendations regarding the specific type of infusion set that
is best matched to your needs to ensure accurate delivery of
insulin.
