PUMP CHARACTERISTICS

The Ross Patrol®Enteral Pump is a microprocessor- (computer-) controlled, rotary
peristaltic pump that provides for accurate, controlled enteral feeding in a safe,
user-friendly system. It has a large, easy-to-read display and simple controls.
The Patrol Pump uses a specially designed feeding set, which includes a bolus­prevention feature to provide safe, accurate control of enteral feeding.

PRECAUTION: This pump is designed to deliver liquid enteral feeding products
only (standard liquid products, infant formulas, or reconstituted powder products
that have been thoroughly mixed into solution).

The Patrol Pump offers these features:

1. Alarms for free-flow

2. Flow-rate selection from 1 to 300 mL/hr in 1 mL/hr increments

3. Accuracy to ±10% or ±0.5 mL/hr, whichever is greater (refer to
CHECKING PUMP ACCURACY, page 12)

4. Dose setting

5. Volume-fed accumulation

6. 8-hour battery operation at 125 mL/hr, when fully charged

7. Alarms:

■

FrEE FLO (free flow)

■

no FLO (no flow)

■

doSE FEd (dose fed)

■

LO bAt (low battery)

■

SEL rAtE (invalid rate, select rate)

■

SEL run (inactivity, select run)

■

E1 to E9 (failed pump self-test)

8. Programmable HOLD timer

9. Lock-out feature

10. System self-check

11. User-friendly operating controls

12. Simple set-up

13. Memory—Automatic retention of the following values until turned off
and disconnected from AC power:

■

VOL FED (volume accumulation)

■

RATE

■

DOSE

INDICATIONS FOR USE

The Ross Patrol®Pump can be used for adult and pediatric patients
provided the patients can tolerate a feeding range within the pump
operational specifications. Those specifications are:

■

The flow rate range is 1 to 300 mL/hr in 1 mL/hr increments.

■

The flow rate accuracy is ±10%, or ±0.5 mL/hr, whichever is greater.

■

Pumps against 18 psi nominal back pressure before no FLO alarm.

If these specifications are not appropriate for a given patient, the Patrol
Pump should not be used.

PRECAUTIONS

■

All enteral pumps have the potential to bolus-feed or overdeliver, which is
an important consideration in feeding volume-sensitive patients. In these
patients, a volume of product no mor

e than four times the hourly feeding

rate should be hung.

NOTE: Do not rely on free-flow alarm as a criterion for use with volume-

sensitive patients.

■

NOT FOR IV USE

■

Confirm proper placement and function of patient’s enteral feeding tube
(nasogastric, nasojejunal, gastrostomy, etc). Failure to do so may result in
vomiting and/or aspiration. Verify the following before initiating feeding:

1. Only

a Ross Patrol Pump Set is being used.

2. Pump set tubing is properly stretched counterclockwise under rotor and blue
connector is secured in the pump.

3. If the feeding set is damaged in any way (eg, broken, cut, torn, parts
separated), replace the set immediately.

4. Flow rate is set at the prescribed mL/hr (DIAL: SET RATE, refer to page 7).

Pump set and container should be replaced as needed, or at least every 24 hours,
to avoid fluid-contamination problems. For single-patient use only.

CONTROL DIAL SETTINGS

DIAL FUNCTION

7

OFF/CHARGE

Stops all pump functions. Battery charges in
all dial settings when pump is plugged in.
The pump will retain current RATE, DOSE
and VOL FED values indefinitely unless

the

pump is unplugged from an AC power
source while in the OFF/CHARGE setting.

RUN

Only setting that activates feeding. Visual
display shows rate of flow in mL/hr and the
dash on the left side of the display scrolls from
top to bottom when pump is in RUN mode.

NOTE: It is normal for rotor movement to be
intermittent (eg, starts, stops, starts, stops, etc)
while in the RUN mode. This intermittent move­ment regulates the rate of flow, conserves bat­tery life and does not affect the accuracy of
the pump. The RUN mode should always
be verified by the top to bottom scrolling
bars on the left side of the display window.

SET DOSE Allows dose to be limited (1 to 9999 mL in

1-mL increments) by pressing the keypad
arrows when the pump is in the SET DOSE
mode. The up arrow increases the dose.
The down arrow decreases the dose.
Completion of this dose triggers the doSE

FEd alarm. Refer to doSE FEd (page 13).

NOTE: Pump will operate without a DOSE

selected (SET DOSE at 0000).

SET RATE

Allows flow rate to be set (1 to 300 mL/hr
in 1-mL/hr increments) by pressing the key­pad arrows when the pump is in the SET
RATE mode. The up arrow increases the
rate. The down arrow decreases the rate.

NOTE: The LOC feature may be activated
by depressing both arrows simultaneously
when the dial is in the SET RATE position.
Repeat procedure to deactivate. The SET
RATE, SET DOSE, and CLEAR VOL values
cannot be changed while the LOC feature
is activated.
