It includes all the essential components — a 20 mL syringe, extension tubing with clamp, dual 22-gauge non-coring needles, a 0.2‑micron filter, a template, and a fenestrated drape — enabling clinicians to perform controlled, accurate pump refills under sterile conditions. This comprehensive kit ensures seamless integration with SynchroMed II and EL systems, helping promote consistency in therapy delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3105\" data-end=\"3638\"\u003eRefill procedures demand exacting safety standards, and the 8551 kit helps minimize risk with built-in safeguards. The non‑coring needles and filter safeguard against contamination while the extension set and clamp enable controlled delivery of the prescription medication. Care must be taken to limit the refill rate to no more than 18 mL per minute, as specified by Medtronic’s instructions, and to confirm correct needle positioning in the pump’s reservoir septum to prevent pocket fills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3640\" data-end=\"4168\"\u003eBeyond usability, this refill kit is critical for maintaining therapy continuity and patient safety. Every refill visit provides an opportunity to reassess the patient's condition, record any volume discrepancies, and monitor for signs of over- or under-infusion. By adhering to Medtronic’s protocols and using the 8551 kit as prescribed, clinicians can help ensure optimal drug delivery, reduce risk of infusion errors, and support long-term efficacy of the SynchroMed infusion system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Medtronic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47477173879009,"sku":"MEDT-8551","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0021\/0527\/8543\/files\/Shopify_-_2025-11-19T120537.484.jpg?v=1763581121","url":"https:\/\/primismedical.com\/products\/medtronic-8551-synchromed-refill-kit-1-ea","provider":"Primis Medical","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
