  2. Prepare Equipment Inspect needle cartridge or packaging for damage and sterility (verify seal) Open cartridge and attach driver to needle set (leave cap on needle until ready to insert) Open EZ-Connect and prime w/saline (or Lidocaine for conscious patients) Leave syringe attached to EZ-Connect T430 RevA

  3. EZ-IO PD 15 mm/15g 5 mm mark EZ-IO AD 25 mm/15g EZ-IO LD 45 mm/15g Length and color are the only differences between Needle Sets T430 RevA

  4. Remove Driver from Needle Set Stabilize Needle Set while disconnecting Driver T430 RevA

  5. Remove Needle Set Safety Cap Stabilize hub and rotate safety cap to remove T430 RevA

  6. Stabilize Extremity Guard against unexpected patient movement T430 RevA

  7. Insert Needle Set at a 90o angle to the bone – insert through the skin until you touch bone It’s a matter of RPM not pressure – EZ does IT! T430 RevA

  8. Note that the 5 mm mark is NOT visible above the skin Size matters! Note that the 5 mm mark is NOT visible above the skin Consider adipose or muscle tissue thickness PRIOR to bone insertion T430 RevA

  9. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE Simply RELEASE the triggerwhen you feel the “POP” or “GIVE” to avoid possible recoil on 3-39 Kg patients Recoil may lead to Needle Set dislodgement and extravasation T430 RevA
