2.7.1.1 Replacing the Pump Tubing
To replace the pump tubing:
Close the tubing clamp.
Disconnect the pump tubing from the catheter.
Remove the pump tubing spike from the bag and empty the saline bag.
Open the pump door and remove the pump tubing. Discard the pump tubing
according to your institution’s standard operating procedures on medical waste
handling.
Setup the new pump tubing as described in the Infusion Pump Tubing Setup
section above.
Setting Up Catheters and Transducers
The NXT system is compatible with LABORIE T-DOC Air Charged Catheters and Fluid NXT
Catheters equipped with SmartSense tags. Refer to the Gathering Supplies and Equipment
section on page 19 for a list of compatible catheters.
2.7.2.1 T-DOC Air Charged Catheters
To setup the T-DOC Air Charged Catheters for use with the NXT, follow the steps below.
IMPORTANT: Always reference the Instructions for Use provided with the consumable
deployed for device specific information and instructions.
Ensure the PIM NXT for T-DOC is connected to the Roam NXT. A solid green light
bar on the Roam NXT indicates that the device is ready for use. For additional
information on connecting the PIM NXT to the Roam NXT, refer to the Replacing
the PIM NXT section on page 102.
Position the patient in a supine or lithotomy position.
Open the catheter pouch and coat the distal end of the device with a water-based
lubricant before inserting the catheter into the patient.
For female patients: Insert vesical (Pves) catheter 8-10 cm for single sensor, 12-14 cm
for dual sensor. Insert abdominal (Pabd) catheter into the rectum 10-15 cm, past any stool
that may be present, along the anterior wall of the rectum. Alternatively, insert vaginally in
the posterior fornix, just behind the cervix, at the level of the cul-de-sac of Douglas.
For male patients: Insert vesical (Pves) catheter 8 cm plus penile length. Do not force if
resistance is met. Insert abdominal (Pabd) catheter into the rectum 10-15 cm, above the
prostate, past any stool that may be present, along the anterior wall of the rectum. Tape
the catheter as close to the insertion site as possible.
Remove the protective caps from the catheter connectors, lift the doors on the
PIM NXT, insert the connectors into the PIM NXT, and push gently until they lock.
Verify that all catheters are connected properly by giving a gentle tug on the
catheter connector. Do not pull catheter lumens. Close any doors of the PIM NXT
which are not in use to seal the empty transducer channels from dirt or debris.
IMPORTANT: The catheter connectors are color coded blue (Pves), red (Pabd), and
yellow (Pura) per industry standard.
