13. Operating Instructions – End Therapy
WARNING
Do not press GO again until you have CLOSED ALL CLAMPS. This
prevents the flow of fluid from one bag to another and/or to the
patient during the time when DISCONNECT YOURSELF appears. This
flow of fluid could result in an increased intraperitoneal volume
(IIPV) situation.
IIPV can result in a feeling of abdominal discomfort, serious injury, or
death.
If any patient, or patient caregiver, suspects the patient has IIPV
during a treatment, press
STOP immediately, then press V and
initiate a Manual Drain. The Manual Drain procedure is located in
18.5, Manual Drain Procedure, on page 18-53. See 18.8, Increased
Intraperitoneal Volume (IIPV), on page 18-58 if IIPV is suspected.
Additional care should be taken to monitor for IIPV symptoms those
patients not able to communicate essential information to their
caregiver during treatment.

16. CLOSE ALL CLAMPS and disconnect yourself as
instructed in the steps in 13.2, Disconnect Yourself,
