AK 98 Dialysis Machine - Haemodialysis - Single needle treatment A:109
5.3 Connect the patient
WARNING!
Check that the blood lines and the patient access (needle or catheter) are tightly
connected. If not, the patient could suffer from blood loss or air embolism.
WARNING!
Check that there are no kinks in the blood lines before starting the blood pump to
prevent damage to patient blood cells.
When connecting the blood access to the extracorporeal circuit, the operator must
ensure that the air detector is activated and the connections between the blood access
and blood lines are tightly secured. Check that there is no leakage in the blood lines.
CAUTION!
Select Connect Patient before connecting the blood lines to the access. This
allows the machine to detect blood and to start the treatment.
