The Medtronic Silhouette subcutaneous infusion sets use a flexible teflon cannula to achieve the ultimate in user comfort and convenience. These sets are an excellent alternative to the Sof-Set device where there may be limitations on tissue depth, or where an individual has an allergy or other usage problem.

The silhouette set is completely disconnectable from the pump at the infusion site. A unique feature of the silhouette is the ability to give manual injections through the set when the pump is disconnected.

The following table shows the product codes available within this range, which may be quoted for ordering purposes.

All Sets Incorporate:

• Soft, flexible teflon cannula for maximum comfort.
• Soft cotton adhesive fixing 'hub'.
• Standard 'luer-lock' connectors for use with any standard pump configuration.
• Low 'dead-space' volume to minimise drug wastage.(Less than 0.2ml)
• Kink resistant tubing.

Sil-Serter

The Medtronic Sil-Serter device is designed to enable users to perform quick and effective insertion of the Medtronic Silhouette infusion products. This provides a unique degree of security and allows for almost trouble free insertion of the set in all circumstances.

Disconnectable.

The specially designed connector enables the user to completely disconnect the pump tubing for a period of time when a break from pump therapy may be desirable. This is particularly valuable for bathing and sporting activities.

Injectable

The Medtronic Silhouette incorporates a silicon sealing port in the set to allow disconnection when appropriate. This same facility allows users to inject directly into the site through this port, to avoid additional needle insertion through the skin.
