I can't find the right words to tell you how brave I think you are and how much I respect you for this video! All of your videos, really. And I want to thank you so much for them! You will never know how much I appreciate them!
Your videos have been an absolute godsend! I just began my PD journey one month ago. I received my supplies today. I have been doing manuals at home and I am picking up my cycler this week. Your videos have been key in helping me remember the steps that I need to take to undergo my therapy effectively and hygienically. Thanks so much! Also, I am sending your video about things that kidney patients want you to know to my friends and family. That was totally spot-on!
Thank you for your kind words. I'm happy to heart my videos are helpful ! I hope that using the cycler will help your daily life to feel as "normal" as possible!
I watched your video on setting up your cycler. I didnt see you sanitize the end of your transfer set before you hooked yourself up. Do you not sanitize the tip of the transfer set before and after hook up? My center has me soaking and scrubbing for 2mins with Alcavis 50. Just curious... Hope to hear back from you. Thanks for your videos.
Thanks for the comment! The mini cap that covers my transfer set has iodine that sanitizes the tip. As long as nothing but the connecting tubing touches the transfer set it is safe to use. But if anything else touches the transfer tip I need to contact my nurse and get a new transfer set for my catheter. I've only had to do that once. But you should always follow the steps that your dialysis nurse and clinic taught you.
I love your videos
