APPENDIX G Stroke volume
measurement
If under-delivery of insulin is noted during a refill procedure or suspected due to
blood glucose control, it may be useful to verify the proper stroke volume of the
Pump by accessing the side port.
In this procedure, a pipette is attached to a stopcock and refill needle. This system
is inserted into the side port. The insulin pulses in the pipette are measured to cal-
culate the pump stroke volume.
Supplies and solutions
Prior to performing this procedure, assemble the necessary supplies and solutions
as outlined below:
Supplies
• Local anesthesia
• Sharps container
•PPC
• Oral or IV glucose
• Glucose monitoring equipment
•Drapes
• 5 ml or 3 ml syringe
• One (1) sterile bag for PPC (intestinal or cassette bags work well)
• One (1) Side port locating template, MMT-4106
• One (1) sterile 100 microliter pipette, MMT-4104
• Two (2) 18 gauge needles
• One (1) MiniMed MMT-4102 refill needle. (Extra needles should be
available to use as needed)
