- Hi.
Today we're gonna talk about the ENBREL Mini.
The Mini is a cartridge that can be inserted
into the autoinjector but this is a reusable autoinjector
so every week you would use a new cartridge.
This is very easy to use
and you can control the speed
in which your injection takes place.
I want to just point out some of the features of this pen.
So, if we look on this side,
we see this top is the button that we would push to inject.
Here we have a window where we'll get our indicator lights.
This is a speaker.
This is how we decide how fast or slow
we want the injection to go, there's just, it just slides.
On this side is our sound.
If we wanted to turn the sound off,
we can turn the sound off.
This is a little indicator window
that shows us, there'll be a light that comes on
and also we'll see a little yellow band that comes down
as the medicine is going through the system.
This side is a door that opens up,
this is our door, this button will open up this door
so that we can put the Mini in there.
Okay, this is the part that's gonna go against your skin.
This is the button at the top, go against your skin here.
So, if you're ready to get started,
you want to wash your hands and the other thing
you'll need is an alcohol wipe
and you're gonna clean off the skin
where you decide that you're gonna do your injection.
Now, because this is such a sophisticated
and sensitive device, I will have to put this
against my skin to demonstrate it.
I'm gonna use my forearm,
however please understand that
this is not a place to inject.
You wanna do your injection in your stomach,
stay an inch away from your belly button, or in your thigh.
So, let me show you how this works.
First thing I'm gonna do, I'll push this button.
That opens the door, we're gonna insert
the little cartridge that has our medication in it.
You can see the medication would be along,
you can see the medication in here, it should be clear.
Nothing floating around, no cloudiness.
And this will only go in one way
but you wanna make sure this label is face up.
Okay, so we slide that in there,
we snap it closed, if you'll notice,
I don't know if you can see that, a little light comes on
inside this window to sort of let us know
that things are getting started here.
We're gonna pull this cap off, just pull straight off.
Now, it's ready to go.
I've cleaned off my spot
and I'm gonna hold this against my skin.
You'll notice what's gonna happen
is this is gonna turn green.
If you have a green light,
that means you're good to fire it.
If you have a red light, either take it away
and put it back again or maybe something has loaded wrong.
I'm gonna turn this and you're gonna see
that you've got indicator lights
in that window I had shown you before.
You would see a red error message
if there was a problem and things weren't ready to go.
Okay, so I'm gonna sort of tilt this a little bit this way
so hopefully you'll be able to see
both that window and the indicator lights.
So, all we're gonna do is push this button.
(electronic whirring)
The medication's going in.
(electronic whirring)
And that's gonna make a second click when it's finished
and it's all done. (electronic whirring)
The machine, this little autoinject
will automatically open up and we'll remove the cartridge.
And then this cartridge is all that you're gonna need
to deposit into your sharps container.
You're gonna close this door
and you're finished with this until next week
when you have to do another injection.
Once again, I wanna say, do not inject in your forearm.
That's not a good place for
to do these subcutaneous injections.
We wanna make sure that they go into a layer of fat.
So, that's what there is to injecting the ENBREL Mini.
Thank you.
