When inserting the needle int the silicne membrane f the Insufln catheter, rtate the syringe gently as the needle is advanced. Rtating the needle helps it t mve away frm the inner wall f the hub.

If using mre than ne Insufln fr the same patient, the lcatin f the Insufln being used t administer each medicatin shuld be clearly dcumented n the CMAR and the name f the medicatin fr which the Insufln is being used shuld be written n the dressing.
