Step 6 - priming needle set
Grasp the syringe, and gently press down with
steady pressure. Watch the tubing fill and stop
flow about 2” short of the needles. To minimize site
irritation, it is recommended to insert needles dry.
Step 7 - inserting needle(s)
Select your sites, cleanse with alcohol and let dry. Carefully
remove shield from the needle tip, without touching the
needle. Pinch the skin and insert each needle into subcutaneous tissue. Secure with adhesive dressing.
Step 8 - check for blood return
Check for blood return by gently pulling back on the
syringe plunger. Watch to make sure no red or pink
appears in the tubing near your sites. If blood return does
exist, clamp the flow to that site and call your healthcare
provider to determine if the dose can be run using the remaining sites. If so, continue. If not, remove all needles,
attach a new needle set and start again from step 6.
