Instructions for use: 1. Removal of overpouch: To remove overpouch, hold the bag horizontally and tear from the notch close to the ports along the upper edge.
Then simply tear the long side, pull off the overpouch and discard it along with the oxygen absorber.
2. Mixing: Place the bag on a flat surface.
Roll up the bag tightly from the handle side towards the ports, firstly with the right hand and then applying a constant pressure with the left hand until the vertical seals are broken. The vertical peel seals open due to the pressure of the fluid. The peel seals can also be opened before removing the overpouch.
Please note: The liquids mix easily although the horizontal seal remains closed.
Mix the contents of the three chambers by inverting the bag three times until the components are thoroughly mixed.
3. Finalising the preparation: Place the bag on a flat surface again. Shortly before injecting the additives, break off the tamper-evident arrow flag from the white additive port.
Please note: The membrane in the additive port is sterile.
Hold the base of the additive port. Insert the needle, inject the additives (with known compatibility) through the centre of the injection site.
Mix thoroughly between each addition by inverting the bag three times. Use syringes with needles of 18-23 gauge and a length of max. 40 mm.
Shortly before inserting the infusion set, break off the tamper-evident arrow flag from the blue infusion port.
Please note: The membrane in the infusion port is sterile.
Use a non-vented infusion set or close the air-inlet on a vented set.
Hold the base of the infusion port.
Push the spike through the infusion port. The spike should be fully inserted to secure it in place.
Please note: The inner part of the infusion port is sterile.
4. Hooking up the bag: Hook the bag up by the hole below the handle.
