Operating Precautions

Disposable Syringes and Extension Sets

• Always clamp or otherwise isolate the patient line before unclamping or removing a syringe from the

pump. Failure to do so may result in unintended administration.

• This Alaris® TIVA Syringe Pump has been calibrated for use with single-use disposable syringes. To ensure

correct and accurate operation, only use 3 piece Luer lock versions of the syringe make specified on
the pump or described in this manual. Use of non-specified syringes or extension sets may impair the
operation of the pump and the accuracy of the infusion.

• Uncontrolled flow or syphoning may result if the syringe is located incorrectly in the pump, or if it is

removed from the pump before the extension set is properly isolated from the patient. Isolation may
include closing a tap in the patient line or activating a flow stop clamp.

• Secure the extension set to the pump using the extension set hook at the rear of the pump. This provides

protection against accidental dislodging of the syringe from the pump.

• When combining several apparatus and/or instruments with extension sets and other tubing, for example

via a 3-way tap, the performance of the pump may be impacted and should be monitored closely.

Mounting the Pump

• The pump must be mounted within 1.0m above or below the patient’s heart. The most accurate pressure

monitoring in the extension set is achieved when the pump is positioned close to the patients heart
level.

I

• Do not mount the pump in a vertical position with the syringe pointing upwards as this could lead to

an infusion of air which may be in the syringe. To protect against the introduction of air the user should
regularly monitor the progress of the infusion, syringe, extension line and patient connections and follow
the priming procedure specified herein.

Operating Environment

• When using any infusion pump in conjunction with other pumps or devices requiring vascular access,

extra care is advised. Adverse delivery of medication or fluids can be caused by the substantial variation in
pressures created within the local vascular system by such pumps. Typical examples of those pumps are
used during dialysis, bypass or cardiac assist applications.

• This pump is suitable for use in Hospital and clinical environments other than domestic establishments

and those directly connected to the public single phase AC mains power supply network that supplies
buildings used for domestic purposes. However, it may be used in domestic establishments under the
supervision of Medical professionals with additional necessary appropriate measures. (Consult Technical
Service Manual, appropriately trained technical personnel or CareFusion for further information).

• This pump is not intended to be used in the presence of a flammable anaesthetic mixture with air or

oxygen or nitrous oxide.

Operating Pressure

• This is a positive pressure pump designed to achieve very accurate fluid administration by automatically

compensating for resistance encountered in the infusion system.

• The pumping pressure alarm system is not designed to provide protection against, or detection of, IV

complications which can occur.

J

Alarm Conditions

• Several alarm conditions detected by this pump will stop the infusion and generate visual and audible

alarms. Users must perform regular checks to ensure that the infusion is progressing correctly and no
alarms are operating.

Operating Precautions (continued)

Electromagnetic Compatibility and Interference

• This pump is protected against the effects of external interference, including high energy radio frequency
emissions, magnetic fields and electrostatic discharge (for example, as generated by electrosurgical and
cauterising equipment, large motors, portable radios, cellular telephones etc.) and is designed to remain
safe when unreasonable levels of interference are encountered.

• Therapeutic Radiation Equipment: Do not use the pump in the vicinity of any Therapeutic Radiation
Equipment. Levels of radiation generated by the radiation therapy equipment such as Linear Accelerator,
may severely affect functioning of the pump. Please consult manufacturer’s recommendations for
safe distance and other precautionary requirements. For further information, please contact your local
CareFusion representative.

• Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): The pump contains ferromagnetic materials which are susceptible
to interference with magnetic field generated by the MRI devices. Therefore, the pump is not considered
an MRI compatible pump as such. If use of the pump within an MRI environment is unavoidable, then
CareFusion highly recommends securing the pump at a safe distance from the magnetic field outside
the identified ‘Controlled Access Area’ in order to evade any magnetic interference to the pump; or
MRI image distortion. This safe distance should be established in accordance with the manufacturers’
recommendations regarding electromagnetic interference (EMI). For further information, please refer to
the product technical service manual (TSM). Alternatively, contact your local CareFusion representative for
further guidance.

• Accessories: Do not use any non-recommended accessory with the pump. The pump is tested and
compliant with the relevant EMC claims only with the recommended accessories. Use of any accessory,
transducer or cable other than those specified by CareFusion may result in increased emissions or
decreased pump immunity.

K

A

V

L

• This pump is a CISPR 11 Group 1 Class A device and uses RF energy only for its internal function in the normal
product offering. Therefore, its RF emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference with
the nearby electronic equipment. However, this pump emits a certain level of electromagnetic radiation
which is within the levels specified by IEC/EN60601-1-2 and IEC/EN60601-2-24. If the pump interacts with
other equipment, measures should be taken to minimise the effects, for instance by repositioning or
relocation.

• In some circumstances the pump may be affected by an electrostatic discharge through air at levels close
to or above 15kv; or by radio frequency radiation close to or above 10v/m. If the pump is affected by
this external interference the pump will remain in a safe mode; the pump will duly stop the infusion and
alert the user by generating a combination of visual and audible alarms. Should any encountered alarm
condition persist even after user intervention, it is recommended to replace that particular pump and
quarantine the pump for the attention of appropriately trained technical personnel. (Consult Technical
Service Manual for further information).

Hazards

• An explosion hazard exists if the pump is used in the presence of flammable anaesthetics. Exercise care to
locate the pump away from any such hazardous sources.

• Dangerous Voltage: An electrical shock hazard exists if the pump’s casing is opened or removed. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.

• When connected to an external power source, a three-wire (Live, Neutral, Earth) supply must be used. If the
integrity of the external protective conductor in the installation or its arrangement is in doubt, the pump
should be operated from the battery.

• Do not open the RS232/Nurse Call protective covering when not in use. Electrostatic discharge
(ESD) precautions are required when connecting RS232/Nurse Call. Touching the pins of the
connectors may result in ESD protection failure. It is recommended that all actions must be taken by
appropriately trained personnel.

• If this pump is dropped, subjected to excessive moisture, fluid spillage, humidity or high temperature, or
otherwise suspected to have been damaged, remove it from service for inspection by a qualified service
engineer. When transporting or storing the pump, use original packaging where possible, and adhere
to temperature, humidity and pressure ranges stated in the Specifications section and on the outer
packaging.

Maintenance

Routine Maintenance Procedures

To ensure that this pump remains in good operating condition, it is important to keep it clean and carry out the routine maintenance
procedures described below.

Interval Routine Maintenance Procedure

As per Hospital Policy Thoroughly clean external surfaces of the pump before and after prolonged period of storage.

Each usage 1. Inspect AC power supply plug and cable for

2. Inspect case, keypad and plunger for damage.

3. Check Start up self test operation is correct.

Before the transfer of the pump to a
new patient and as required

If the pump is dropped, damaged, subjected to excessive moisture or high temperature, immediately take it out of
service for examination by a qualified service engineer.

A

All preventative and corrective maintenance and all such activities shall be performed at a compliant work place in
accordance with the information supplied. CareFusion will not be responsible should any of these actions be
performed outside the instructions or information supplied by CareFusion. For Preventative and Corrective
Maintenance instructions please refer to the Technical Service Manual (TSM).

All servicing should only be performed by a qualified service engineer with reference to the TSM.

Clean the pump by wiping over with a lint-free cloth lightly dampened with warm water and a
standard disinfectant / detergent solution.

Please refer to Technical Service Manual for calibration procedures. The units of measurement used in the
calibration procedure are standard SI (The International System of Units) units.

A

Battery Operation

The internal rechargeable battery allows continued operation when the AC power is unavailable, for example during patient transfer or AC
power failure. Mean Time To Battery Empty from fully charged @ 5ml/h & 20°C under normal conditions is 6 hours*. From the battery low
alarm it will take about 2½ hours to 90% charge when reconnected to the AC power supply, whether the pump is in use or not.

The battery is maintenance free, sealed Nickel Metal Hydride and requires no routine servicing. However, to achieve optimum operation,
ensure that the battery is fully recharged after full discharge, before storage, and at regular 3 month intervals during storage.

Charge retention will eventually degrade. Where retention is critical the internal battery should be replaced every 3 years.

It is recommended that only a qualified service engineer replaces the battery. For further information regarding the replacement of

Maintenance (continued)

Cleaning and Storage

Before the transfer of the pump to a new patient and periodically during the use, clean the pump by wiping over with a lint-free cloth lightly
dampened with warm water and a standard disinfectant / detergent solution.

Recommended cleaners are:

Brand Concentration

Hibiscrub 20% (v/v)

Virkon 1% (w/v)

Do not use the following disinfectant types:

• Disinfectants which are known to be corrosive to metals must not be used, which include:

• NaDcc (such as Presept),

• Hypochlorites (such as Chlorasol),

• Aldehydes (such as Cidex),

• Cationic Surfactants (such as Benzalkonium Chloride).

• Use of Iodine (such as Betadine) will cause surface discoloration.

• Concentrated Isopropyl alcohol based cleaners will degrade plastic parts.

The syringe and extension sets are disposable single use items and should be discarded after use according to their manufacturers’
instructions.

If the pump is to be stored for an extended period it should be first cleaned and the internal battery fully charged. Store in a clean, dry
atmosphere at room temperature and, if available, employ the original packaging for protection.

Once every 3 months during storage, carry out functional tests as described in the Technical Service Manual and ensure that the internal
battery is fully charged.

Before cleaning always switch OFF and disconnect from the AC power supply. Never allow liquid to enter the casing
and avoid excess fluid build up on the pump. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents as these may damage the exterior

Occlusion Pressure Limits

Time to alarm following occlusion is achieved in less than 30 minutes at rates of 1 ml/h and higher by the appropriate selection of occlusion
levels.
The following graphs show the typical values for time to alarm and bolus volume that can be expected in the event of an occlusion when
the BD Plastipak 50 ml syringe is selected with a G40020B standard extension set.

Occlusion Level

Tests at low alarm levels may alarm immediately - the force at these levels is commonly less than the friction in the syringe (with no
additional fluid pressure). The result is that the pressure relating to the low forces will be less than the nominal quoted occlusion pressure.

Bolus volume following occlusion will be minimised by the back off feature if enabled. The back off will reduce the line pressure by removing
the volume stored in the occluded line and deducting this volume from the volume infused.

IrDA, RS232 and Nurse Call Specification

IrDA / RS232 / Nurse Call Feature

The RS232 / Nurse call feature is an optional feature on Alaris®
Syringe Pumps. It allows the pump to be monitored remotely
and/or controlled via a suitable central monitoring or computer
system.

When the pump is started by a command from the serial interface,
communication must take place over the serial interface, a
communication must take place every 15 seconds or the pump
will alarm, display communications failure and stop infusing. This
failure protects against failure of the communications, including
the removal of the RS232 cable.

The nurse call interface provides a remote
backup to the internal audible alarm. It should

A

not be relied upon to replace monitoring of
the internal alarm.

Refer to the Technical Service Manual for
further information regarding the RS232
interface. Since it is possible to control the
syringe pump using the RS232 interface at
some distance from the pump and hence
remote from the patient, responsibility for the
control of the pump is vested in the software
run on the computer control system.

The assessment for the suitability of any
software used in the clinical environment to
control or receive data from the pump lies
with the user of the equipment. This software
should include detection of the disconnection
or other failure of the RS232 cable. The protocol
is detailed in the Technical Service Manual and
is for general information only.

Any connected analogue and digital
components are required to meet IEC/EN60950
for data processing and IEC/EN60601 for
medical devices. Anyone connec ting additional
devices to the signal input or output is a system
configurator and responsible for meeting the
requirements of the system standard IEC/
EN60601-1-1.

Trumpet Curves & Start-up Curves

In this pump, as with all infusion systems, the action of the pumping mechanism and variations in individual syringes cause short-term fluctuations
in rate accuracy.

The following curves show typical performance of the system in two ways: 1) the delay in onset of fluid flow when infusion commences (start-up
curves), and 2) the accuracy of fluid delivery over various time periods is measured (trumpet curves).

The start-up curves represent continuous flow versus operating time from the start of the infusion. They exhibit the delay in onset of delivery due
to mechanical compliance and provide a visual representation of uniformity. Trumpet curves are derived from the second hour of this data. Tests
performed per IEC/EN60601-2-24 standard.

Trumpet curves are named for their characteristic shape. They display discrete data averaged over particular time periods or 'observation windows',
not continuous data versus operating time. Over long observation windows, short term fluctuations have little effect on accuracy as represented
by the flat part of the curve. As the observation window is reduced, short term fluctuations have greater effects as represented by the "mouth" of
the trumpet.

Knowledge of system accuracy over various observation windows may be of interest when certain drugs are being administered. Short term
fluctuations in rate accuracy may have clinical impact depending on the half-life of the drug being infused, therefore the clinical effect cannot be
determined from the trumpet curves alone.

Start-up and trumpet curves may not be indicative of operation under negative pressure.
Differences in factors such as size and plunger force in compatible syringes produced by other manufacturers can cause

A

variations in accuracy and trumpet curves as compared to those represented. Additional curves for compatible syringes are
available upon written request.

For applications where flow uniformity is a concern, rates of 1.0 ml/h or above are recommended.
