System Description

System Description
The Performer™ CPB System, hereafter referred to as the Performer CPB, is an electromechanical extracorporeal support device used during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. It is an integrated console that can provide total circulatory support of the cardiopulmonary system using the Medtronic Blood Pump, hereafter referred to as the Bio-Pump.

System Overview

®
Bio-Pump® Centrifugal
Total extracorporeal support of the cardiovascular system is accomplished by using the Bio-Pump Performer CPB for generating arterial flow up to 10.0 liters per minute (L/min). Bio-Pump flow is achieved by adjusting the pump speed RPM knob on the front panel of the Performer CPB console. Flow measurement is accomplished using a reusable ultrasonic flow transducer that is noninvasively attached to the arterial line of the extracorporeal circuit. The detected flow is displayed on the front panel of the console (red LED) and on the Main Run Screen of the Central Information Display (CID). The pump speed RPM knob has a minimum RPM mechanical stop, or detent, that prevents an unintentional reduction of RPM below 2000. The user must press down on the detent lever while turning the knob counterclockwise to purposefully reduce the RPM below 2000. The minimum RPM detent lever does not affect increasing the RPM.
Integral to the Performer CPB are four roller pumps, each with an independent Start/Stop button, a 3-turn roller speed control knob and a LCD for monitoring flow or RPM. The roller pumps are indicated for moving fluids through an extracorporeal circuit that incorporates a flexible tube. The roller pumps are not indicated for use in supporting flow through arterial circuits.
Two small roller pumps (PM4 and PM3) generate low flow for cardioplegia delivery, hemoconcentration, or other auxiliary applications. PM4 is a deep-well pump capable of accommodating two tubes of same or different dimensions and is capable of a maximum flow of 1.1 L/min. PM3 accommodates one tube and is capable of a maximum flow of 0.6 L/min. PM3 and PM4 can be configured via the CID so that both pumps operate in tandem, with PM4 designated as the master pump and PM3 designated as the slave pump. The master pump Start/Stop button and pump speed RPM knob operate both pumps.
®
Centrifugal Blood Pump. The Bio-Pump is the exclusive device on the
Two large roller pumps (PM1 and PM2) generate flow for cardiotomy suction, left heart venting, or auxiliary application. PM1 is a low torque/high speed roller pump with a maximum flow capacity of 3.7 L/min. PM2 is a high torque/mid-flow roller pump with a maximum flow capacity of 1.5 L/min.
The interchangeable roller pump inserts are factory calibrated for providing optimal occlusion for standard sizes of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) tubing available for medical use. Factory-calibrated roller pump inserts are also available when using 2 tubes in a single raceway.
The Performer CPB provides perfusion monitoring via:
1-2 Operator’s Manual
Pressure monitoring transducers for up to 8 pressures including venous line, arterial line, cardioplegia delivery, AAR suction, vent line, sucker line, syringe, and one user-defined.
Introduction
System Overview
Temperature monitoring using YSI™1 Series 400 probes for 8 temperatures including venous line, arterial line, cardioplegia delivery, and the remainder user defined.
Flow monitoring for the arterial line using a reusable Transonic
™2
ultrasonic flow probe, which noninvasively connects directly to the arterial line tubing. This flow probe also serves to detect backflow in the arterial circuit. Flow data combined with patient body surface area entered in the CID also provides for continuous monitoring of cardiac index.
Oxygen saturation and hematocrit monitoring using an opto-electric sensor, which couples with a dedicated disposable cuvette that is integrated into the extracorporeal circuit. This data, in combination with the information obtained from the flow transducer, is used to calculate and display oxygen consumption on the CID.
Timers for pump time, clamp time, and cardioplegia delivery times and intervals.
The CID enables the user to interact with the Performer CPB equipment. It consists of a 30.73 cm (12.1 in) color graphic display (256 colors, 800 x 600 pixel) in combination with a touch screen system to activate the various functions represented on the screen. The display is divided into well-defined zones for the individual perfusion modes and uses unique graphic pictures and icons to display information. Critical information areas are always visible. The touch screen display allows the user to:
display all desired perfusion parameters
input patient information
configure pump responses to activation of safety devices and events that occur during bypass
set safety alert and alarm limits
display graphical trending of data
select cardioplegia delivery modes
read message alarms and warnings
select audible alert and alarm tones
The CID and the console incorporate distinct visual and audible cues intended to elevate the user's awareness when a safety sensor is activated and when user-defined or default operational limits of a system are exceeded. The Performer CPB enables the user to configure integrated safety links between the following safety sensors and the Bio-Pump and the roller pumps:
Air Bubble Detection (ABD) of macro-air in the arterial circuit is integral to the ultrasonic flow monitoring system. The system can be configured by the user to cause the Bio-Pump to either Stop or Coast in response to this sensor being activated and prevent transmission of air to the patient. The user can also configure this safety link to not change the Bio-Pump function, but only produce visual and audible alarm cues.
Air bubble detection of macro-air in the cardioplegia circuit, using an ultrasonic transducer mounted to the side of the console that couples directly to the cardioplegia delivery tubing. The user can configure the cardioplegia delivery pump (PM4) to either Stop or Pause in response to this event and prevent transmission of air to the heart. The user can also configure this safety link to not change the roller pump function but only produce visual and audible alarm cues.

Chapter 1
System Overview
Active Air Removal (AAR) technology integral to the Performer CPB is used in conjunction with a dedicated disposable Venous Air Removal Device (VARD) for venous air sensing and automatic removal. This prevents air entering the venous line from reaching the Bio-Pump and potentially being transmitted to the patient. The Active Air Removal (AAR) technology with the VARD is only utilized when operating the Resting Heart mode.
Level Detection utilizes a pair of level sensors to monitor changes in fluid or blood volume in reservoirs. The system can be configured by the user to cause the Bio-Pump to either Stop or Coast in response to a level sensor being activated, preventing emptying the reservoir and transmitting air into the circuit. The user can also configure this safety link to not change the Bio-Pump function, but only produce visual and audible alarm cues. The level detection system is only utilized when operating in the Bio-Pump CPB mode.
An AutoClamp System utilizes a pneumatically-powered Remote Tube Clamp (RTC) that is placed on the arterial line and serves to prevent retrograde flow from the aorta into the venous reservoir if the Bio-Pump run mode changes. When the Bio-Pump enters either the STOP or COAST mode, or the pump speed is manually reduced to 2000 RPM, there exists the potential for arterial retrograde flow and entrainment of air into the arterial line from around the aortic cannulation site. This poses a hazard to the patient if the pump is restarted before air is removed. The AutoClamp System can be configured to automatically clamp the arterial line when the Bio-Pump speed changes, prevent retrograde flow and thereby prevent the potential to entrainment air around the aortic cannulation site. The AutoClamp System is only utilized when operating in the Bio-Pump CPB mode.
Pressure transducers enable user-defined alert and alarm limits for arterial line pressures, venous line pressures, cardioplegia pressures, as well as the individual roller pump pressures.
The Performer CPB provides an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) that will provide battery power to operate the system for a minimum of 30 minutes with a fully loaded system (see page 5-44) in the absence of line power.
Additional user conveniences include:
Cardioplegia delivery configuration options to select automatic shut off of the cardioplegia pump to user-defined volume or time delivery parameters and a user-defined option for two-pump blood and drug proportioning from 0:1 (pure drug) to 15:1.
Graphic trending of flow, cardiac index, venous saturation, hematocrit, pressure, and temperature data.
Capability to auto-regulate the speed of the Bio-Pump to maintain a desired venous line pressure. This function is particularly useful when operating the Medtronic
®
Resting Heart™ System and optimizing the relationship between
blood flow and left heart emptying.
An integrated printer to generate hard copy records.
A removable data storage card that allows perfusion and system information to be stored electronically and then later formatted for generating reports.
Electric powered height adjustment for optimal operation, transport, and storage.

General

The user must read and understand all information in the Operator's Manual prior to use. Failure to read and follow all instructions, or failure to observe all stated warnings, could cause serious injury or death to the patient.
Only trained and qualified medical personnel should operate and monitor the Perfor mer CPB.
Use the system and any attached devices according to the manufacturer's instructions and good medical practice.
The system is qualified only for durations appropriate to cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. It has not been qualified, either through in-vitro, in-vivo, or clinical studies, for use beyond 6 hours.
The Performer CPB enables the user to change the configuration of the default factory settings. Reconfiguration in regards to how components respond to events and assurance that users are properly trained to operate the Perfusion Screens must be appropriately controlled by the user institution. Failure to establish such controls may result in user error that could result in patient injury or death.
Following standard practices for electronic devices, closely monitor the system when exposure to intense electrical noise or fluctuating line voltage occurs. Strong electromagnetic fields emitted from other equipment in the operating room (OR) (internal and external defibrillators, electrocautery devices, etc) or fluctuations in the alternating current (AC) power line voltage may compromise performance or damage the equipment.
Portable and mobile radio frequency (RF) communication devices may affect the operation of this system. (See “Electromagnetic Emissions and Immunity Declarations” on page 3-6.)
A standby Bio-Console® Extracorporeal Blood Pumping Console should be available during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures.
Maintain a minimum Bio-Pump speed or clamp the pump outlet line to prevent backflow.
Do not kink the VARD sensor cable.
Operator’s Manual 1-5
Chapter 1
Warnings
Do not allow fluids to come into contact with the cable connections.
To prevent backflow of the patient's blood when the pump outlet tubing is open, establish and maintain a minimum pump speed that overcomes line and patient resistance. Failure to do this could allow retrograde flow and exsanguinate the patient.
All gaseous bubbles have the potential for gaseous emboli and must be dealt with carefully. Use of Safety Devices (Arterial Line Air Bubble Detector, VARD, Level Detection, AutoClamp) and Safety Systems (Bio-Pump Backflow Alert) is recommended to aid in the detection and elimination of gaseous bubbles in the extracorporeal circuit.
When handcrank operation of a roller pump is necessary due to a failure of the motor or motor controller, the roller pump digital display may remain illuminated. Any RPM/flow values that are being displayed will not correlate to the manual RPMs or flow generated using the handcrank.
A fluid isolator is necessary in the pressure monitoring line to prevent contact of sterile fluid path with the instrument and damage to the instrument and pressure system.
Do not bypass the fluid isolator/filter in the pressure lines for the pressure connectors (PR1 through PR8, ALP, and VLP) or fluid could enter the transducer and damage internal components.
Do not introduce fluid into the male pressure luer connections on the console.
Do not connect the external temperature probes in conjunction with electrocautery usage; this may compromise the temperature values measuring.
The device has been designed and tested in conformity with the Electro-Magnetic Compatibility standard EN60601-1-2 (2003). It is advisable, however, to avoid its use in the presence of electromagnetic fields or other equipment causing interference (eg, cellular phones). Special information regarding installation, use, and precautions are described in “Electromagnetic Emissions and Immunity Declarations” on page 3-6.
The utilization of other manufacturers' probes (eg, flow and temperature) may jeopardize the performance of the device and, as a consequence, the measurement reliability.
The equipment is not protected against defibrillator discharges.

Do not use the integrated AAR Controller until proper operating conditions are verified. Prior to each use, it is the responsibility of the user to determine that the system is in proper operating condition as described in this manual.
To prevent backflow of the patient's blood when the pump outlet tubing is open, establish and maintain a minimum pump speed that overcomes line and patient resistance. Use the AutoClamp System on the arterial line. Failure to do this could allow retrograde flow and introduce air into the arterial circuit.
Introduction
Warnings
Prior to configuring the Arterial AutoClamp to CLOSE when the Bio-Pump enters the COAST mode, it is the user's responsibility to test their extracorporeal circuit and confirm the conduct of perfusion at their institution does not generate arterial backflow when the Bio-Pump enters the COAST mode or the Bio-Pump speed is manually reduced to the “detent” position.
If the Bio-Pump enters the Coast Mode in response to the “AIR DETECTED BY ABD” alarm, pump RPM will remain at 2000 and will not automatically ramp up after the air is no longer detected by the ABD or after the ABD is turned off. Flow can only be resumed manually after careful assurance that air has been completely removed from the arterial circuit.
If the Bio-Pump enters the Coast Mode in response to the “AIR DETECTED BY ABD” alarm and the AutoClamp is configured to CLOSE, the AutoClamp will not automatically OPEN after Bio-Pump flow is resumed. The user must manually press the AutoClamp button on the Main Run Screen to open the clamp after careful assurance there will be forward flow.
The Self Test must be performed prior to each use of the device. If the AutoClamp System does not operate as described during the Self Test, do not use the AutoClamp System. Contact Medtronic Service.
Resume flow only after careful assurance there is no air in the arterial circuit.
Ensure the air pressure to the AutoClamp System is within the range specified in Chapter 3.

Battery/UPS

If a partially charged battery is used, there may be less than 30 minutes of battery power available.
When the Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) converts the system to battery power, ALL pumps, pump functions, safety systems, alerts, alarms, monitors, controls, the Pinch Valve and the Central Information Display (CID) are active and function the same as when the system is on AC power.

Main Power Switch

Ensure that the Main Power switch is off before storage, inspection, cleaning, and preparation for use to disable both the battery power and wall AC power.

Central Information Display (CID)

If the CID fails during a procedure, the Performer CPB can be operated through the local controls for the roller pumps and the Bio-Pump.
If the CID fails during a procedure, the sensors that have safety connections with the Bio-Pump will remain enabled. The sensors that detect and measure blood flow, Arterial Line Pressure (ALP), Venous Line Pressure (VLP), Venous Saturation (SvO2), Hematocrit (Hct), Revolutions Per Minute (RPM), and Cardioplegia Pressure can be displayed by scrolling through the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) display on the Bio-Pump control panel on the front of the console.
If the CID fails during a procedure, DO NOT turn the system power off as this will cause all settings and device assignments to be lost.
The CID must be in the Home Screen for data to be downloaded into the CompactFlash allow a minimum of 10 seconds for the data download to complete before removing the CompactFlash

The roller pump safety cover interlocks are not enabled until after the Resting Heart™ Screen is opened. Ensure the roller pump safety covers remain closed if roller pump function is required before enabling the Resting Heart™ Screen.

Handcrank

If handcrank operation is necessary due to the loss of AC and battery power, flow detection and safety systems are inoperable. Closely monitor the circuit to prevent introduction of air.

Bio-Pump

If air enters the Bio-Pump, stop perfusion as gaseous emboli may be introduced into the patient.
If the Bio-Pump stops, immediately clamp the arterial line and venous line. Check for air in the arterial line that may have resulted from backflow. If air is visible, remove from the arterial circuit before resuming bypass.
If the Bio-Pump enters the Coast Mode in response to the “AIR DETECTED BY ABD” alarm, pump flow will remain at 0.5 L/min and will NOT automatically ramp up after the air is no longer detected by the ABD or after the ABD is turned off. Flow can only be resumed manually after careful assurance that air has been completely removed from the arterial circuit.

Power On Self-Test (POST)

Bypassing the POST when a system has failed may cause error messages or malfunction during use.
If the POST repeatedly produces a FAILED indication, contact a Medtronic service representative.

Air Bubble Detector (ABD)

A gray icon (with a red X) for the Arterial Line Air Bubble Detector icon indicates the sensor is DISABLED and will not generate an alarm if air enters the arterial circuit.
1-8 Operator’s Manual

Cautions

Introduction
Cautions
The Air Bubble Detector (ABD) sensor must be positioned at a sufficient distance from the patient to allow the air detection system sufficient time to respond before air can reach the patient.
The ABD sensor latch must be completely closed to secure the sensors to the tubing.
The ABD sensor must be positioned so the cable is between the tubing and the floor.
The performance of the ABD must be verified before each use.
A gray icon (with a red X) for the Cardioplegia (CPG) Air Bubble Detector icon indicates the sensor is DISABLED and will not generate an alarm if air enters the cardioplegia circuit.
Do not use sharp instruments on the CID, Bio-Pump control panel scroll arrows, or the roller pump Start/Stop button as these may damage the device. Restrict touching the screen with fingers only.
Installing the Bio-Pump with the motor revolving may damage the Bio-Pump.
When assembling the Bio-Pump Centrifugal Blood Pump, Model BPX-80, for use with the Performer CPB, do not use alcohol or alcohol-based fluids. Do not expose to chemical agents as they may affect the integrity of these devices. Anesthesia solutions such as FORANE
4
are known to degrade polycarbonate plastics. Avoid
contact of these solutions with the BPX-80 Bio-Pump.
Using the Bio-Pump beyond labeled recommendations may result in failure of the centrifugal blood pump, reduced pumping capacity, leaks, excessive blood trauma, and degradation or corrosion of blood contact materials, which may pass through the blood to the patient.
Refer to the instructions included with the Medtronic® Resting Heart™ System or specific manufacturers’ disposable circuits.
Maintain a minimum pump speed or clamp the circuit's arterial line to prevent arterial backflow.
If the pressurized gas fails or the air hose is disconnected, the Remote Tube Clamp (RTC) will close.
Do not drop the O2Sat/Hct sensors as shock may damage the sensor.
Do not adjust the occlusion setting on the roller pump insert; doing so will void the warranty.
Ensure the castor brakes are engaged before use.
When transporting the machine, reduce the equipment’s height to the lowest position to avoid tipping.
Only ship the Performer CPB in a Medtronic-approved crate. Contact your service personnel for the correct procedure.
After each use, clean the device as per the instructions on page 6-2 and ensure all components are in proper working condition.

1. At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
2. These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects, and people.
The ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are 6,765 MHz to 6,795 MHz; 13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHz; 26,957 MHz to 27,283; and 40.66 MHz to 40.70 MHz.
The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz are intended to decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable communication equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas. For this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation distance for transmitters in these frequency ranges.

c
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones, land mobile radios, amateur radios, AM and FM radio broadcast, and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Performer CPB equipment is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Performer CPB equipment should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Performer CPB equipment.

Monitoring System for Hematocrit, Temperature and O
Saturation

Monitoring System for Hematocrit, Temperature and O2 Saturation

The Performer CPB equipment has an integrated device, called the Hematocrit-Temperature-Saturation (HTS) Module, that allows the user to measure:
blood oxygen saturation in blood (Sat O2)
red blood cell concentration (hematocrit) in blood (Hct)
temperature of 8 external locations, detected by as many thermistor probes, connected with the device by means of a standard “jack” connection
O2 Sat/Hct
Caution: The oxygen saturation and hematocrit monitoring system is not intended to substitute for regular patient observation and laboratory testing. Prior to any therapeutic treatment, the oxygen saturation and hematocrit should be determined by laboratory methods.
Warning: Do not connect the external temperature probes in conjunction with electrocautery.
Warning: The device must be used only with thermistor temperature probes, as indicated by the manufacturer.
Warning: The device has been designed in conformity with the IEC 60601-1-2 norm. It is advisable, however, to avoid its use in the presence of electromagnetic fields or other equipment causing interference (eg, cellular phones).
Warning: In case of electromagnetic interferences, the temperature values detected by the external probes and indicated on the main display may undergo transitory variations. However, this is not an alarming condition for the patient since the temperature signals are not employed in the temperature control feedback. In the subsequent measurements, the user shall carefully evaluate the value(s) reliability in relation to the real conditions before proceeding with whatever action or control system modification.

Technical Specifications
Temperature Probes
High Temperature
Life
Mechanic Stresses
Disinfection
Warning: A periodical maintenance/control of the multiple-use probes detecting
efficacy is recommended every 3 months.

Battery Supply System (UPS)

The Performer CPB is equipped with a battery Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system that provides the low voltage supply (24V) if the main power supply fails, thus allowing treatment to continue.
Note: When the Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) converts the system to battery power, ALL pumps, pump functions, safety systems, alerts, alarms, monitors, controls, the Pinch Valve and the Central Information Display (CID) are active and function the same as when the system is on AC power.
Do not expose the probe to temperatures higher than 100°C.
Only expose the probes to temperatures in the range of 80°C and 100°C for short periods of time.
Prolong the life of the cable by frequently sprinkling it with talcum powder, especially after disinfection.
Ensure that the cable is not subject to excessive mechanical stress like traction, squeezing, or kinking.
For proper disinfection of the multiple-use probes, refer to the instructions supplied by the manufacturer inside the packaging.
In case of a main supply failure, fully-charged battery backup will allow treatment with a fully loaded system to continue for a minimum of 30 minutes (see page 5-44.)

Roller Pumps

Roller pumps are indicated for moving fluids through a flexible tube. As each roller passes through the pump raceway, it occludes the tube and displaces the fluid in the tube in the direction of rotation.
Each pump only rotates in a clockwise direction.
Uses include, but are not limited to, propulsion of arterial blood and myocardial preservation solutions, and extraction of fluids from the thorax or vascular chambers.
The Performer CPB comes with two (2) large roller pumps with a maximum flow potential of 3.7 L/min (PM1) or 1.5 L/min (PM2) and two (2) small roller pumps with a maximum flow capacity of 1.1 L/min (PM4) or 0.64 L/min (PM3).

System Configuration
System Configuration is a user-defined programming process that is necessary to ensure that the safety systems and pump functions of the Performer CPB conform to the conduct of perfusion protocols specific to how either the Resting Heart mode and the Bio-Pump CPB mode will be used at the institution. It is typically a one-time setup procedure performed by a Perfusionist designated as the System Administrator. It is recommended this process be completed before the Performer CPB is used for a surgical bypass procedure.
Each Performer CPB comes pre-programmed with factory default settings for the Resting Heart mode and Bio-Pump CPB mode. When these settings are modified by the System Administrator during the process of System Configuration, these new settings can be saved as a new profile and can be password protected by the System Administrator (see “Password Protection” on page 5-18).

Message Only
the Stop Mode. The pump must be restarted manually after the event is cleared or the safety system is disabled. If a Stop response is executed while the centrifugal pump is in the Servo Mode, the pump will switch to the Manual Mode after it is restarted.
In the Resting Heart mode, a Coast response causes the Bio-Pump speed to reduce to a flow of 0.5 L/min. As the pump speed adjusts to achieve 0.5 L/min, the transient RPM change may not be sufficient to prevent backflow or may be high enough to allow some forward flow. The pump flow will remain at 0.5 L/min until the event is cleared or the safety system is disabled. The pump speed will then automatically ramp up its speed to the previous level. Warning: If the Bio-Pump enters the Coast Mode in response to the “AIR DETECTED BY ABD” alarm, pump flow will remain at 0.5 L/min and will not automatically ramp up after the air is no longer detected by the ABD or after the ABD is turned off. Flow can only be resumed manually after careful assurance that air has been completely removed from the arterial circuit.
In the Bio-Pump CPB mode, a Coast response causes the Bio-Pump speed to be reduced to an RPM of 2000. This RPM may not generate sufficient pressure to prevent backflow, or it may be enough to allow some forward flow. The pump will remain at 2000 RPM until the event is cleared or the safety system is disabled. The pump speed will then automatically ramp up its speed to the previous level.
Warning: If the Bio-Pump enters the Coast mode in response to the “AIR DETECTED BY ABD” alarm, pump speed will remain at 2000 RPM and will not automatically ramp up after the air is no longer detected by the ABD or after the ABD is turned off. Flow can only be resumed manually after careful assurance that air has been completely removed from the arterial circuit.
A Pause response causes the roller pump speed to be temporarily reduced to zero. The speed remains at zero until the event is cleared or the safety system is disabled. The pump will then automatically start and gradually ramp up its speed to the previous/original level.
A Message Only response causes a message about the event to appear in the top line of the message bar. The message may occur concurrent with the other visual and audible cues representing an alert or alarm condition.
No Response
If No Response is selected, then no safety system connection is established between the device and the pump.
The AutoClamp System incorporates a pneumatically powered tube clamp on the arterial line that serves to prevent retrograde flow from the aorta into the venous reservoir when the Bio-Pump events STOP, COAST, BACKFLOW, or LOW FLOW occur.

Figure 5-17. Main Run Screens
1. Bio-Pump RPM: Turn the pump speed RPM knob clockwise to increase the RPM of the remote drive motor. Monitor pump speed (RPM) in correlation with blood flow.
Warning: To prevent backflow of the patient’s blood when the pump outlet tubing is open, establish and maintain a minimum pump speed that overcomes line and patient resistance. Use the AutoClamp System on the arterial line in Bio-Pump CPB mode. Failure to do this could allow retrograde flow and exsanguinate the patient.
Warning: All gaseous bubbles have the potential for gaseous emboli and must be dealt with carefully. Using Safety Devices (Arterial Line Air Bubble Detector, VARD) and Safety Systems (Bio-Pump Backflow Alert, AutoClamp) are recommended to aid in the detection and elimination of gaseous bubbles in the extracorporeal circuit.
2. Flow: To display and monitor blood flow, attach the doppler ultrasound flow transducer to the arterial line of the extracorporeal circuit. It is recommended that this placement occurs downstream of the arterial filter. Ensure that the direction of the arrow on the face of the sensor is in the same direction of fluid flow. The sensor will detect flow of both electrolyte solutions and blood.
Operator’s Manual 5-41
Chapter 5
Main Run Screen
3. T1 and T2: The Main Run Screen is configured to display two temperatures, T1 and T2. Connect a YSI™ Series 400 compatible temperature probe to the jack labeled T1 on the back of the console to monitor the temperature in the T1 display (see the arterial circuit). Connect a YSI™ Series 400 compatible temperature probe to the jack labeled T2 on the back of the console to monitor the temperature in the T2 display (see the venous circuit).
4. Air Bubble Detector (ABD): The doppler ultrasonic flow probe includes an integral macro-air bubble detector. The ABD icon on the Main Run Screen defaults to the ABD Disabled Mode when the system is powered up. The top line of the message bar will display “ABD OFF.” To activate or enable the air bubble detection function, press the ABD DISABLED icon. When enabled, the ABD icon will change to ABD ENABLED and the display “ABD OFF” will clear from the top line of the message bar. In the event arterial air is detected, the ABD icon will change to AIR DETECTED.
5. Arterial Line Pressure (ALP): To display the arterial line pressure, connect a pressure monitoring line with an isolator between a stopcock in the arterial segment of the extracorporeal circuit and the pressure luer port labeled ALP. Ensure that the portion of the monitoring line from the circuit stopcock to the fluid isolator membrane is thoroughly primed.
Warning: Do not introduce fluid into the male pressure luer connection on the console.
By pressing the Pressure Mode button, the user can change the ALP display to read either systolic , mean , diastolic , or instantaneous pressure.
6. Cardiac Index: In the Patient Information Screen (see “Patient Information” on page 5-100), ensure that the correct patient height (in cm) and weight (in kilograms) are entered. These parameters are then used to calculate the patient's Body Surface Area (BSA) in square meters. Cardiac index represents either the flow in liters per minute per square meter of body surface area (L/MIN/M2) or milliliters per minute per kilogram of body weight (ML/MIN/KG). Press to change the display to view either parameter.
7. Oxygen Cons./Oxygen Deliv.: This display enables the perfusionist to continuously monitor the milliliters per minute of oxygen the patient is consuming or the milliliters per minute of oxygen being delivered to the patient. Oxygen consumption is based on the following calculation: OXYGEN CONS. = 1.39 x (Hct/3) x (.999 - OXYGEN SAT) x BLOOD FLOW x 10. Oxygen delivery is based on the following calculation: OXYGEN DELIV. = 1.39 x (Hct/3) x .999 x BLOOD FLOW x 10. Both equations rely on the continuous input from the Doppler ultrasound probe measuring the blood flow and the input from the optical probe measuring oxy-hemoglobin saturation and hematocit. Press to change the display to view either parameter.
8. Hematocrit: When the probe used to monitor the oxy-hemoglobin saturation of mixed venous blood is connected to the 9.5 mm (3/8 in) connector/cuvette, it will simultaneously detect the hematocrit of the blood and display the value in the Hematocrit window. The unit of measure is percent (%). Press to adjust the low Hematocrit alert using the pop-up window.
9. Oxygen Sat (%): To display the oxy-hemoglobin saturation of mixed venous blood, connect the optical probe to the 9.5 mm (3/8 in) connector/cuvette in the venous segment of the extracorporeal circuit. Press to adjust the low Oxygen Sat alert using the pop-up window.

pressure monitoring line with an isolator between a stopcock in the venous segment of the perfusion circuit and the pressure luer port labeled VLP. Ensure that the portion of the monitoring line from the circuit stopcock to the fluid isolator membrane is thoroughly primed.
Instructions for Use
Main Run Screen
Warning: Do not introduce fluid into the male pressure luer connection on the console. Zero the transducer (see “Zeroing the Pressure Transducers” on page 5-87). By pressing the Pressure Mode button, the user can change the VLP display to read either systolic , mean , diastolic , or instantaneous pressure. (See Figure 5-34 on page 5-88.)
11. VLP Servo: The VLP servo automates the relationship between pump RPM and changes in venous line pressure (VLP). When the VLP servo is engaged and the venous line pressure becomes more negative, the system automatically reduces pump RPM to facilitate a consistent VLP value.
Note: The VLP servo does not override the Bio-Pump safety system responses for Coast or Stop.
12. VARD Servo: The VARD servo automates the relationship between pump RPM and the occurrence of air in the VARD. When the VARD servo is engaged and air enters the VARD, the system automatically reduces pump RPM to facilitate efficient removal of the air. The VARD servo overrides the pump responses set up for the “Air In VARD” and “Too Much Air In VARD” safety systems. The system will indicate with acoustic and visual indicators when air does enter the VARD.
Bio-Pump CPB Mode only:
13. Level Detection: Used for detecting changes in fluid or blood volume in a reservoir. The Level Detection System utilizes a pair of color-coded sensors placed on the outside surface of a reservoir. The location is user-defined. The reservoir icon indicates the sensors are properly attached and sensing fluid in the reservoir. The Level Detection button enables the sensors so when the fluid/blood level in the reservoir moves above or below the position of a sensor, visual and audible cues occur to alert the user. The Bio-Pump and the roller pumps can also be configured to change their speed in response to the sensors detecting level changes.
Warning: The level detection system must be properly set up and enabled prior to clinical use. Undetected emptying of the reservoir may result in gaseous emboli being pumped to the patient with attendant risk of death or serious injury.
Warning: Verify the level detection system functions properly with the particular reservoir being used.
Warning: The performance of the level detection system must be verified before each use.
14. AutoClamp: Displayed when the AutoClamp System is enabled and a pneumatically powered tube clamp is placed on the arterial line. The clamp can be configured to close when the Bio-Pump run mode changes (STOP, COAST, LOW FLOW) or the arterial flow sensor detects backflow. Closing the clamp prevents retrograde flow from the aorta into the venous reservoir and prevents introducing air into the arterial line. The AutoClamp icon on the Main Run Screen defaults to the SELF TEST READY Mode when the system is powered up. Press to conduct the Self Test. When passed, the icon changes to AUTOCLAMP OFF. When pressed, the icon changes to AUTOCLAMP ON. When triggered to close, the icon changes to AUTOCLAMP CLOSED. When the red AUTOCLAMP CLOSED is pressed, the icon changes to the AUTOCLAMP OFF icon.
Warning: Prior to configuring the AutoClamp to CLOSE when the Bio-Pump enters the COAST mode, it is the user's responsibility to test the extracorporeal circuit and confirm the conduct of perfusion at their institution does not generate arterial backflow when the Bio-Pump enters the COAST mode or when the Bio-Pump speed is manually reduced to the “detent” position.

Cardioplegia

Delivery Mode Selection

The system can deliver cardioplegia in two distinct modes, a Two-Pump Delivery Mode and a One-Pump Delivery Mode. When the Perfusion Operations Screen is first opened, the area defined as the Cardioplegia Control Screen defaults to display graphics for the previous delivery mode used.

Two-Pump Delivery Mode

The Two-Pump Delivery Mode uses the pump identified as PM4 for regulating the delivery of the blood portion of the cardioplegia mixture (see Figure 5-18). The pump identified as PM3 is used for regulating the delivery of the drug portion of the cardioplegia mixture. In the two-pump configuration, both pumps operate in tandem, with the blood pump (PM4) designated as the master pump and the drug pump (PM3) designated as the slave pump. The master pump Start/Stop button and pump speed RPM knob operate both pumps.

One-Pump Delivery Mode

Instructions for Use
Cardioplegia
The One-Pump Delivery Mode uses the roller pump identified as PM4 (See Figure 5-18). The ratio of the desired blood and drug mixture is achieved by putting two tubing segments of different dimension in PM4. Then PM3 can be used as a “free” pump (left heart venting, hemoconcentration, etc). In the one-pump configuration, each pump is independently operated using its dedicated Start/Stop button and pump speed RPM knob.

AAR Controller - Venous Air Removal Device (Resting Heart mode only)

AAR Controller - Venous Air Removal Device (Resting Heart mode only)

Overview

The Medtronic® AAR Controller and the Medtronic® Affinity® Venous Air Removal Device (VARD) combine to form a safety system for sensing air in the Resting Heart™ System and then activating a pinch valve that opens a vacuum line for removing air that may enter the venous circuit. This minimizes the probability of venous air reaching the Bio-Pump and potentially being transmitted to the patient.
Two pairs of ultrasonic fluid sensors in the VARD will detect changes in the air/fluid level within the air separation portion at the inlet of the device. When the level drops below the sensors, the AAR Controller software opens the pinch valve.
An air purge line is connected from the luer port at the top of the VARD to a blood collection canister. The canister is connected to a regulated wall vacuum source. The air purge line is placed in a mechanical pinch valve on the Performer CPB console. The normal resting position of the pinch valve is closed. When air is detected, the valve is opened to remove the air, then immediately returned to the closed position.
The AAR Controller - VARD Run Screen includes the following visual alert and alarm indications and icons representing the status of functional components (see Figure 5-24).

the system status LED will change to yellow
the top line of the message bar will display “AIR IN VARD”
The pinch valve will open, allowing wall vacuum to suction the air out of the VARD until the upper pair of ultrasonic sensors detect no remaining air/blood mixture in the upper area of the VARD.
The AAR Controller then closes the pinch valve, the yellow Air In VARD icon clears, the audible alert tone ceases, the system status LED returns to green, and “AIR IN VARD” clears from the top line of the message bar.
