Loading Precaution

Before loading or unloading the syringe, always turn off fluid flow to the patient, using the tubing clamp or stopcock. Uncontrolled fluid flow can occur when the admininstration set is not clamped or turned off, and may cause serious injury or death.

Prior to reviewing the steps for loading a syringe on the next page, familiarize yourself with the parts in the diagram on the right.
