Pump refill procedure

5. Remove the IN syringe. Remove the 18 gauge needle and apply pressure to
the insertion site.
6. Weigh the IN syringe and record on the Refill Form.
Calculate extracted and refill amounts
1. Calculate the extracted amount by using the calculation section of the refill
form.
2. Calculate the refill amount by using the calculation section of the refill form.
3. Enter the extracted amount (amount withdrawn as calculated on the refill
worksheet at line E) and the refill amount (as calculated on the refill
worksheet at line G) into the PPC.
Calculate refill accuracy
The PPC automatically calculates the refill accuracy following the PPC refill pro-
gramming. You can also follow the calculation section of the refill form to calcu-
late the refill accuracy.
Enter the refill accuracy value (in %) on the line provided on the refill form. It is
important to record this value to evaluate system function.
