PREPARING THE MACHINE | Manual Priming
• In
manual priming
the operator is in charge of the priming process.
• Priming of the blood side of the circuit can start as soon as the blood pump button is flashing, and
the blood lines have been attached.
• In this case, the caps from the dialyzer blood ports should be moved to the dialyzer fluid ports to
prevent spillage.
• Alternatively, priming can also be delayed so that it is completed once the machine has reached
full conductivity, as displayed by the green flow path.
• In this situation the dialysis fluid tubes of the machine can be connected to the dialyzer, while
remaining in bypass, allowing the blood side priming to be started and preventing spillage.
• The dialyzer is then rotated and the machine taken out of bypass at the appropriate point.
