6 Close the proximalshut-off valve by turning handleperpendicular to tubing.
Please note the following for productmanufactured beginning November,2000: No components of this package or the product it contains are made fromnatural rubber latex or dry natural rubber.
10 Open theproximalshut-offvalve byturninghandleparallel to tubing.
11 Slowly, smoothly,and evenly, pushdown on theplunger until it isfully closed.(Recommendedrate is 1 cc every10-15 seconds.)
12 Fill syringe with flush solution. Attach Interlink NeedleLess cannula to the syringe. Ensure syringe and cannula are free of air bubbles. Swab distal access port. Insert syringe and cannula into the distal access port. Slowly flush line per hospital procedure. Open thedistal one-way valve.
DRAWING BLOOD SAMPLES FROM THE VAMP JR. NEEDLELESS SAMPLING SITE
7 Swab proximal sample site. Ensure plunger is depressed to the bottom of the syringe. Attach cannula. Push cannula intoproximal sample site.
9 While holding the cannula,remove thesyringe/cannulafrom the sampling site by pullingstraight out.
8 Slowly draw theblood sample.
