Installing the PAS NOTE: A PAS must be installed to prime the SAS and to infuse a patient. A new PAS
must be installed for each patient. The PAS installed to prime the SAS may be
used for the first patient after SAS priming.
WARNING: Biological contamination can result from reusing the PAS or failure
to follow sterile technique. DO NOT reuse or attempt to resterilize. Properly discard
disposable items after use. If there is any possibility that contamination may have
occurred during set-up or use, disassemble and set-up a new sterile product.
WARNING: Patient injury may result if disposable package is opened or
damaged, or if damaged components are used. Visually inspect contents and
package before use.
WARNING: Patient infection may result from the use of non-sterile components.
Maintain sterility of all disposable components using aseptic techniques.
CAUTION: Component damage may occur if not installed properly. Ensure all
connections are secure. DO NOT over-tighten.
