Description

The MiniMed™ Sure-T™ Infusion Set by Medtronic is expertly designed for those requiring reliable subcutaneous insulin delivery through an insulin pump. This infusion set addresses common challenges faced by users of soft cannulas, offering a kink-free experience with its fine 29-gauge steel needle. Available in lengths of 6 mm, 8 mm, or 10 mm, the steel needle provides a dependable alternative for individuals with allergies to soft cannulas or issues such as bent cannulas and scar tissue.

Key Features

• Manual Insertion: The set is manually inserted at a 90-degree angle, utilizing plastic wings for precise handling. This method eliminates the need for an insertion device, simplifying the process.
• Secure Adhesion: Two adhesive pads ensure secure placement at both the insertion and disconnection sites, enhancing stability and reducing the risk of dislodgement.
• Tubing Options: The infusion set offers tubing lengths of 18", 23", and 32", allowing users to select the most suitable length for their needs.

Enhanced Usability

A notable feature of the MiniMed™ Sure-T™ Infusion Set is its additional disconnection point, approximately 10 cm from the infusion site. This design provides added security against clogging and dislodging, while the quick-release mechanism allows for easy disconnection from the tubing.

• No Cannula Fill Required: Post-insertion, there is no need for additional filling of the cannula, streamlining the setup process.
• Needle Guard: The inclusion of a needle guard enhances safety during handling and disposal.
• Secure Connection: The tubing connector locks into the insulin reservoir with a reassuring click, ensuring a secure fit.

Compatibility

This infusion set is compatible with Medtronic MiniMed insulin pump systems, including models 630G, 770G, and 780G. It works seamlessly with MiniMed infusion set tubing and reservoirs, utilizing the unique MiniMed connection. For added security, it can be used with Infusion Set IV3000™ Tape or similar transparent tape dressings.

Intended Use

The MiniMed™ Sure-T™ Infusion Set is intended for individuals who have not had success with soft cannulas or prefer the reliability of a steel needle. It is designed exclusively for subcutaneous insulin infusion and is not suitable for intravenous use or the infusion of blood products.

Usage Instructions

Users are advised to clean the insertion site thoroughly before use, pinch the skin for insertion, and press the adhesive pads firmly after placement. The insulin reservoir should be connected to the tubing connector, with the tubing primed to remove air bubbles. Regular changes of the infusion set every 24 to 48 hours are recommended.

Maintenance and Safety

Proper setup, insertion, and site management are crucial, with initial setup ideally supervised by a healthcare professional for first-time users. Rotating insertion sites helps prevent irritation or infection, and ensuring full priming of the infusion set avoids air in the system, promoting safe and effective insulin delivery.
