FUROSCIX USE IN THEIR COMFORT ZONE

EASE OF USE

FUROSCIX IS DESIGNED FOR SUBCUTANEOUS ADMINISTRATION AT HOME BY THE PATIENT OR CAREGIVER1,2

  • FUROSCIX utilizes a pre-programmed, single-use On-Body Infusor with pre-filled cartridge1
  • Once attached, the On-body Infusor is activated with the press of a single button2

THE ON-BODY INFUSOR AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE WERE UNDERSTOOD AND EFFECTIVELY USED BY THE INTENDED POPULATIONS*2

the study was on 15 trained patients with hf, 15 untrained patients with hf, 15 untrained hcps, and 15 untrained caregivers
99.2% of critical observational use tasks were completed correctly by FUROSCIX On-Body Infusor subjects(2) 99.2% of critical observational use tasks were completed correctly by FUROSCIX On-Body Infusor subjects(2) 99.2% of critical observational use tasks were completed correctly by FUROSCIX On-Body Infusor subjects(2)
98.3% of participants reported no difficulty understanding or following Instructions for Use(2) 98.3% of participants reported no difficulty understanding or following Instructions for Use(2) 98.3% of participants reported no difficulty understanding or following Instructions for Use(2)

*Trained participants attended an HCP-conducted walk-through of the instructions for use. Participants performed all tasks the following day. Patients were representative of the intended user population in terms of age, gender, ethnicity, and education.

Tolerability

SYSTEMIC ADVERSE REACTIONS WITH FUROSCIX WERE CONSISTENT WITH THOSE REPORTED FROM PATIENTS ADMINISTERED IV FUROSEMIDE1,3

The most common adverse reactions with the FUROSCIX On-Body Infusor were erythema, bruising, edema, and infusion site pain.1

THE NUMBER OF DOSES OF FUROSCIX SHOULD BE INDIVIDUALIZED BY THE HCP BASED ON THE PATIENT’S THERAPEUTIC RESPONSE

  • FUROSCIX is not for chronic use and should be replaced with oral diuretics as soon as practical1
  • Monitoring of patients taking FUROSCIX is consistent with diuretic guidance4,5
