All safety related sensing systems are automatically checked for proper operation periodically during
set up and pump running conditions. Faults are identified by SYSTEM ERROR codes.
Effect of Fluid Container Height1.
The performance of the infusion pump will be influenced by the forces of gravity on the fluid being
administered to the patient. When a fluid container is positioned above or below the patient’s
administration site, pressure forces associated with the fluid’s head-height (distance measured from
the center of the pumping mechanism to the top of the fluid in the source container) will cause
deviations in the nominal specification for device flow rate accuracy. The nominal head-height used
for the flow rate and graphical presentation is 24” (61 cm). e.g. The deviation from the nominal flow
rate accuracy from +24” to -20” (-51 cm) head-height has an influence of a possible -4% in flow rate
accuracy when the flow rate is set to 25 mL/hr.
1. Note: Liquid container must be vented or a collapsible bag.
Bolus Accuracy
The SIGMA Spectrum IV Pump may have an optional bolus mode of operation. This feature allows
the user to perform a BOLUS SETUP action. To utilize this feature the pump must be programmed
with either a specific rate or a specific amount to be delivered in a certain amount of time.
If the pump is currently operating in mL/hr delivery mode, the bolus rate value is entered in mL/hr
and the volume is entered in milliliter (mL). If the pump is operating in a non-mL/hr delivery mode
(for example mcg/kg/min), the bolus amount would be entered in mcg/kg however the ML/HR soft
key may be pressed in the setup screen to enter the bolus information in mL/hr format.
In either mode, the time is entered in minutes and seconds (min:sec). Limits are placed on the
minimum and maximum amount of time for the bolus delivery. The limit constraints are contained
within the software of the Spectrum pump and are necessary to control the maximum or minimum
flow rate of the bolus infusion.
6
P/N 41019 Rev W
SIGMA SPECTRUM INFUSION PUMP - SERVICE MANUAL
The accuracy of the bolus volume is dependent up the resultant flow rate that is obtained from the
calculation of volume to be delivered in the time requested. For example if the maximum bolus
volume is 300 mL, the maximum flow rate is obtained with a bolus time of 18:02 (min:sec) or a flow
rate of approximately 999 mL/hr. Using this maximum bolus volume, and delivering the volume in
the shortest amount of time, the mean value of 302 mL ± 5% may be expected. Whereas using a
minimum bolus volume (.5 mL), and delivering the volume in a reasonably short amount of time (1
minute), the mean value of .52 mL ±16% may be expected.
