What to do if there is a PAS occlusion in Medrad Intego Medical Equipment?
- CChristine Hogan MDAug 7, 2025
If you encounter a PAS occlusion with your Medrad Medical Equipment, check the lines for occlusions. Common causes include clamped, kinked, or crushed tubing, high-gauge needles or catheters, or closed valves between the PAS and the patient. Also, verify the Saline Container and Saline Line for any occlusions. If the DISCARD option is selected or activity remains in the Dose Calibrator after all attempts to resume, the remaining activity will be discarded into the Waste Container.
