A
All pumps in a single care area should be configured with the same alarm tones to avoid User confusion. The Hospital/Facility is responsible for selecting and configuring the desired alarm scheme. Alaris Gateway Workstation (Workstation) with software versions 1.1.3, 1.1.3 MR, 1.1.5, 1.2 or 1.5 do not support the new Pump low priority visual alarms scheme defined in IEC 60601-1-8: 2012. For Pumps with version 4.3.x software or higher docked into these Workstations there will be a mismatch of alarm priority displayed. As a result, Near End Of Infusion, AC Power Fail, Add Drug Not Complete, and Attention alarms will display as a medium visual priority alarms on the Workstation beacon and a low priority alarm on the Pump. Additionally, for certain information signals, e.g. those associated with Add Drug Not Complete and Titration Not Confirmed, the Workstation beacon will illuminate while the beacon on the pump will not. In the event of an alarm priority mismatch, the User should refer to the alarm on the Pump for the correct priority.
