Ypsopump

[Julie.reid1906]

I have recently been changed to ypsopump from animas and now use pre-filled pump cartridges. I often have more than 50% of the insulin left when I change my set. My question is can I keep using the same cartridge just changing the infusion cannula? It seems so wasteful to throw it away.

TIA

The cartridge must be changed every 3 days regardless of amount left.

The cartridge must be changed every 3 days regardless of amount left. Cannulas last 3 days as well or 2 if steel, you can just change the cannula as long as the insulin is less than 3 days old.
