NOTE:
If you end your therapy early for any reason, you can be left with
more fluid in your peritoneal cavity than normal. If this occurs, your
Initial Drain Alarm (I-DRAIN ALARM) setting may be too low. To
minimize the potential for an increased intraperitoneal volume (IIPV)
situation, do one of the following at the beginning of your next
therapy:
If a VERIFY I-DRAIN: ML prompt appears, press STOP and
press
U or V to increase your I-DRAIN ALARM setting to at least
70% of your current expected peritoneal volume for this therapy
only.
– OR –
If a VERIFY I-DRAIN prompt does not appear, press STOP and V
to MANUAL DRAIN. Press
ENTER to initiate a Manual Drain. The
system will return to STOPPED: DRAIN when the Manual Drain
ends. You can repeat the Manual Drain any number of times
without an audible alarm. Resuming the Drain can result in an
audible alarm.
