7.1 Selecting the right program
24
The Symphony breast pump is installed with either the Symphony PLUS program card
or Symphony Standard program card which generate the pump suction patterns.
The Symphony PLUS program card contains two pump programs. The aim of the INITIATE
program is to initiate milk production with Medela's initiation technology. The MAINTAIN
program is designed to build and maintain milk production with the 2-Phase Expression
technology.
The Standard program card is designed to build-up and maintain milk production with
the 2-Phase Expression technology. This program is identical to the MAINTAIN program.
While the Standard card can be used to initiate lactation, Medela recommends using
the INITIATE program of the Symphony PLUS program card.
Contact your midwife or breastfeeding and lactation consultant if you are experiencing
difficulties in initiating lactation or for further information on which program to use.
