[QUOTE="david.ed.bullock, post: 1355378, member: 270860"] Hi all, I am a new pump user and have the Accucheck insight pump system using Novorapid pumpcart. I am a little unsure of this weekend as have had it fitted on Wednesday 11th January and has come to the weekend when I have no contact with nurses! The points are as below: 1) They said at the installation meeting that the Novorapid pump cart will last around 5 days. 2) They told me that the cannula will need changing every 3 days and the Infusion set with pipe every 2 days. This means I am due to change the cannula tomorrow morning and the infusion set on Monday. However I don't think I will have enough insulin to last till the infusion set Monday. By the looks of the pump I will have enough insulin to cover until Saturday evening which is only 3 days since installation not 5 like they originally thought! Does the insulin have to be changed with the infusion set and pipe as it has a cover for insulin compartment within the set. Sorry if this sounds all over the place, I am a little worried about what to do! I Would appreciate your comments and help please :) Thanks David [/QUOTE]
