General Warnings and Safety Notices - Read This First DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide 1.0 General Warnings and Safety Notices - Read This First It is imperative that the symbols and conventions listed below be clearly understood. The DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide identifies critical, important, and useful information using these symbols and conventions. 1.1 Important Safety Conventions Users of this device are encouraged to contact their Arthrex representative if they require a more comprehensive surgical technique. WARNING! WARNING! is the most important safety symbol. It identifies critical information that must be followed precisely to avoid injury or death. 1. All fluid inflow devices, including gravity assist, may cause fluid extravasations into the surrounding tissues. This extravasation may be mild, moderate or severe. In severe cases, the resulting edema may result in a serious adverse patient event which may include compartment syndrome, nerve compromise, or death. Undiagnosed capsular defects will exacerbate fluid extravasation conditions. 2. Failure to follow the setup instructions and/or continuing to use the pump without resolving an alarm condition could result in a serious patient adverse event. 3. Failure to adhere to the setup instructions and use of Arthrex certified tubing may result in inaccurate pressure sensing and monitoring by the device. It is imperative that the user is aware that patient safety may be compromised when an alarm on the pump is ignored or silenced incorrectly. NEVER ignore or silence alarms. Follow appropriate troubleshooting procedures and carefully monitor the patient. Only Arthrex certified tubing must be used 4. This device is only for use in normal arthroscopic procedures as described in the User’s Guide, under the supervision of a trained and licensed physician. This device should not be used by untrained personnel or used for indications other than those described in this User’s Guide. 5. When utilizing any fluid management device, the patient (extremity and surrounding area) must be monitored closely by the surgical team for signs of excess fluid buildup. Fluid usage volumes should be monitored and compared to similar surgical procedures. With all arthroscopy pumps, correct setup and proper user operation is required. Always select the lowest possible pressures in order to achieve the required intra-articular distention. All alarms or alerts must be acknowledged and the appropriate troubleshooting procedure followed. 6. No modification of the console (AR-6480) or accessories is allowed.

2.0 Product Description
Product Description DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide
2.1 Product Description and Intended Use The Arthrex AR-6480 DualWave Arthroscopy Pump is a system that maintains constant, non-pulsed control of intra-articular rinsing and distention pressure throughout all phases of an arthroscopic surgical procedure. The AR-6480 is intended to provide continuous pulse-free flow that reacts immediately to changes in the intra-articular pressure so that joint distention can be sustained even under high shaver extraction volumes or secondary outflow.
WARNING! All fluid inflow devices, including gravity assist, may cause fluid extravasations into the surrounding tissues. This extravasation may be mild, moderate, or severe. In severe cases, the resulting edema may result in a serious adverse patient event which may include compartment syndrome, nerve compromise, or death. Undiagnosed capsular defects will exacerbate fluid extravasation conditions. When utilizing any fluid management device, the patient (extremity and surrounding area) must be monitored closely by the surgical team for signs of excess fluid buildup. Fluid usage volumes should be monitored and compared to similar surgical procedures. With all arthroscopy pumps, correct setup and proper user operation is required. Always select the lowest possible pressures in order to achieve the required intra-articular distention. All alarms or alerts must be acknowledged and the appropriate troubleshooting procedure followed.
WARNING! FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE SETUP INSTRUCTIONS AND/OR CONTINUING TO USE THE PUMP WITHOUT RESOLVING AN ALARM CONDITION COULD RESULT IN A SERIOUS PATIENT ADVERSE EVENT. Failure to adhere to the setup instructions and use of Arthrex certified tubing may result in inaccurate pressure sensing and monitoring by the device. It is imperative that the user is aware that patient safety may be compromised when an alarm on the pump is ignored or silenced incorrectly. NEVER ignore or silence alarms. Follow the appropriate troubleshooting procedures and carefully monitor the patient. Only Arthrex certified tubing must be used.
WARNING! This device is only for use in normal arthroscopic procedures as described in the User’s Guide, under the supervision of a trained and licensed physician. This device should not be used by untrained personnel or used for indications other than those described in this User’s Guide.

4.6 Shaver Detect
Setup DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide
The AR-6480 detects when a shaver handpiece has been activated. The Shaver Detect feature operates differently, depending on if an AR-6430 Outflow Tube Set is installed on the DualWave. Shaver Detect can be set up in three different ways.
NOTE: The Shaver Detect feature will function as described in sections 4.6.3 – 4.6.4.
4.6.1 Shaver Detect, Synergy System Connection For correct operation of Shaver Detect when connecting with a Synergy System Integration Cable (AR-3200-1040): 1. Ensure the Synergy System Integration Cable is properly connected between the Synergy Resection Console and the DualWave. 2. Attach the shaver handpiece and footswitch (if used). 3. Turn on the Synergy Resection Console. 4. Turn on the DualWave. NOTE: For use only with DualWave software version 1.8 or greater and Synergy Resection Console version 2.3 or greater. Refer to IFU 950-0052-00 for more information. NOTE: It is recommended that the Shaver Detect Power Cable not be connected when using the Synergy System Integration cable for Shaver Detection. NOTE: The Shaver Detect feature will function as described in sections 4.6.3 – 4.6.4. 4.6.2 Shaver Detect, Shaver Power Cable The Shaver Detect feature depends on the differential of current draw from the shaver system when it is powered on in a static state and when the shaver handpiece is activated. For correct operation of Shaver Detect when connecting with the Shaver Interface Cable: 1. Ensure the Shaver Detect Power Cable is properly connected between the Shaver console and the DualWave. 2. Attach the shaver handpiece and footswitch (if used). 3. Turn on the Shaver Console. 4. After the Shaver Console sequence, turn on the DualWave. NOTE: The Shaver Detect feature will function as described in sections 4.6.3 – 4.6.4. NOTE: The Shaver Detect settings adjustments are described in section 4.6.5.
DFU-0212-3 Rev. 0
Page 27 of 54
4.6.3
Setup DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide Shaver Detect, Inflow only
During inflow only (no outflow tube set) when the shaver is activated the DualWave activates BOOST mode for increased pressure to compensate for the loss of distention from the vacuum used with the shaving device.
The pressure will automatically change to the preset BOOST values, and can be noted on the operator display [5]. The BOOST button will change to a dark blue color when the shaver is activated.
If the LAVAGE mode is ON prior to activating the shaver, the LAVAGE mode will be overridden except when LAVAGE mode causes a larger pressure increase.
4.6.4 Shaver Detect, Inflow/Outflow During inflow/outflow operation (outflow tube set present), the DualWave responds to shaver activation by closing the cannula suction tube and opening the shaver suction tube for fluid egress. The level of suction will automatically change to either the preset shaver suction value, or to the user-defined level. If LAVAGE mode or RINSE mode are activated during or prior to the shaver being activated, both modes will be overridden except when LAVAGE mode causes a larger pressure increase. When the shaver is deactivated, the DualWave automatically closes the shaver suction tube, opens the cannula suction tube, and reverts to the preset outflow rate.

Page 28 of 54
Setup DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide 4.6.5 Adjusting the Shaver Detect NOTE: Only adjust when using the Shaver Detect Power Cable. Users can adjust the Shaver Detect function for optimal interfacing performance. To change the settings, press these buttons in this sequence: MENU à DEFAULTS à Shaver Detect. The screen displays and allows changes to the settings for Shaver Detect. There are four Shaver Detect presets that offer various levels of sensitivity. The user may select from the four presets preloaded into the DualWave or adjust each preset according to individual needs. This can be done by pressing the EDIT button after a preset has been selected. There are three settings inside each preset that are changeable by the user: 1. THRESHOLD is the level of sensitivity that the DualWave uses to detect the incoming signal from the Shaver Console. This ranges from 1 to 100. 2. DELAY controls the amount of time the Shaver Detect Circuit examines the incoming signal from the Shaver Console before it activates the pinch roller mechanism. This ranges from 0 - 10 (1/10th of a second). 3. DRIFT TRACKER controls whether or not the DualWave will constantly adjust the stored shaver current baseline reading. This can be turned on or off. Once the necessary adjustments have been made, press the DONE button to save the changes to the selected preset. Note to the user: • Select the highest THRESHOLD that will allow detection of the shaver when used at typical RPMs. • Increase the DELAY setting to filter out noisy electrical conditions. • All four presets can be reset by pressing the RESET DEFAULTS button on the MENU screen. • The Shaver Console must be completely powered up before powering on the pump. • A new baseline is captured when pressing the RUN button which characterizes a NOT ACTIVATED condition. The screen will display a message reading “ACQUIRING SHAVER.” During the baseline capture, do not activate the shaver. Cautions to the user: • As the THRESHOLD value decreases, so does the DualWave’s ability to prevent false detections of shaver activation. This condition makes the DualWave behave as if the shaver handpiece is activated when it is not. This is characterized by sporadic movement of the pinch roller between the Shaver
DFU-0212-3 Rev. 0
Page 29 of 54
Setup DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide and Cannula tube ends. Conversely, as the THRESHOLD value increases, so does the likelihood of the DualWave not recognizing shaver activation. This can result in failure of the DualWave to provide for aspiration through the shaver blade and result in retention of heat within the blade. • As the DELAY value decreases the DualWave will have less time to analyze the information received through the Shaver Detect circuit. This action can result in a false detection. Increasing the DELAY value should alleviate this condition. As the DELAY value increases, the accuracy of the determination of the shaver handpiece state will improve, but at the highest levels, the DELAY time may result in a perceived lag before the DualWave responds to the shaver activation. • The DualWave’s Shaver Detect function has been verified to function properly with the Arthrex Adapteur II Shaver Console and Arthrex Synergy Resection Console. It is the responsibility of the user facility to evaluate third-party shaver consoles to determine the correct operating parameters and any potential hazards of utilizing the DualWave with an alternate shaver console. 4.7 How to Set Up the Synergy Heads-Up Display 1. First obtain the Synergy System Integration Cable Kit (AR-3200-1040). 2. Connect the Synergy System Integration Cable between the rear panel of the DualWave [19] and the rear of the Synergy Imaging Console communication connections labeled RS-232. 3. Turn on the DualWave and Synergy Imaging Console. NOTE: Refer to IFU 950-0052-00 for more information.
4.8 How to Set Up Pump Tubing NOTE: These instructions describe the procedure for setting up the AR-6410, AR-6415, AR-6411, or AR-6420. 1.

Puncture the fluid bags with the spikes on the tubing. If only one fluid bag is being used, seal the second fluid line by closing the clamp nearest to the unused spike. 4.9 How to Set Up the Two-Piece Tubing System NOTE: These instructions describe the procedure for setting up the AR-6421, AR-6425, or AR-6220. WARNING! The extension, patient, and/or outflow tubing must be changed for new each patient and/or procedure. 1. The surgical staff removes the sterile extension or patient tubing from its sterile pack and hands the connector [h or k] for the pump tubing set to the circulating nurse. 2. The circulating nurse connects the two tubing systems together [h to h in Figure 5 or k to k in Figure 6]. 3. At the end of each case, detach the extension or patient tubing set and attach the sterile connector cap (supplied with each extension or patient tubing set) to the patient-end of the pump tubing. NOTE: Following each surgery, detach and discard the extension or patient tubing set. WARNING! The sterile connector cap must be used to cover the pump tubing set connector after each surgical procedure. This maintains sterility of the pump tubing and ensures its safe operation throughout the entire surgical day. 4.10 How to Set Up the Outflow Tubing 1. Open the outflow door completely. 2. Place looped tubing around the roller assembly. 3. Pull outflow fixture [E] down until it slides into the outflow tubing receiver. 4. If the pump is on, the pump should now detect the tubing and change the pump setting to inflow and outflow controls. 5. Close the outflow door.

4.13 Safe Setup and Performance
4.13.1 Abnormal Operation
The AR-6480 employs a dual-pressure sensor design. Microcontroller-based internal circuitry monitors the sensors, as well as other circuit parameters, to ensure that the pump remains within normal operating limits. In the event of a fault, the pump motor is automatically disabled and an error message is displayed on the operator display [5]. See Table 3 for a complete list of operator display messages and section 10.0 for troubleshooting information.
NOTE:
If abnormal console operation cannot be corrected, disinfect the pump, repackage in the original shipping materials, and return to Arthrex, accompanied by a brief description of the malfunction. Prior to shipping, it is necessary to obtain a return authorization number from Arthrex.
4.13.2 Overpressure Sensing The sensing circuitry in the AR-6480 detects the pressure of the fluid in the tubing. The overpressure alarm can be activated when the flow is abruptly interrupted or the joint is suddenly positioned in a way which reduces the joint capsule volume (e.g., bending the knee joint to the “Figure 4” position). If an overpressure event occurs (300 mmHg), a warning message reading *Over Pressure* will flash on the TPVD and an audible alarm will sound. The pump motor is automatically disabled until the pressure returns to the set range. To reduce the pressure in a joint, open an outflow and/or manipulate the joint to a stress-free position.
4.13.3 Roller Housing The pump motor automatically deactivates when the roller housing door is opened. A locking mechanism prevents access to the rotating parts while the device is operating.

Setup DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide 4.13.4 Tubing Sensor Coupler The pump motor automatically deactivates when the tubing is disconnected from the pump. If the tubing is disconnected during a surgical procedure it must be replaced by new tubing. Do not reconnect the tubing to the pump as it could lead to unreliable pressure. WARNING! If the tubing is disconnected from the pump it must be replaced. Do not attempt to reconnect the tubing to the pump as it could lead to unreliable pressure. 4.14 Shutdown Procedure The AR-6480 can be safely shut down at any time by powering down the console. All tubing accessories must be discarded as biohazardous waste.

Operation and Frequently Used Functions DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide 5.0 Operation and Frequently Used Functions Users of this device should contact their Arthrex representative if they require a more comprehensive surgical technique. 5.1 Initial Pressure Settings WARNING! The safe ty and e ffectiveness of the AR-6480 is v erified and documented; howe ver, the AR-6480 must be used with an awareness of the risk of extraarticular e demas for patients with pathologically changed articular capsules and for procedures involving an opening of the capsule (e.g. lateral release). Slight swellings have been observed and described in the literature in cases where roller pumps are used in arthroscopy. This build-up of fluid can lead to postoperative swellings and pathological changes in patients. It is of the utmost importance that the surgeon monitors both the system and the patie nt closely while the roller pump is in operation. Always start with the lowest possible pressure to achieve the desired joint distention. Continue to increase distention pressure until a clear liquid medium is obtained.
After the DualWave power-up sequence has finalized, the user will be able to select from four preprogrammed pressure settings for the knee, shoulder, small joint, and hip joint spaces. Once the icon for the selected joint space has been pressed, the DualWave will display the appropriate controls and readings on the operator display. The pressure presets can be adjusted by entering the MENU, then Defaults, then Presets. Selecting “done” will save the adjusted preset in the memory until it is changed. Table 15 specifies the initial pressure settings that are preprogrammed for surgery. The ideal intra-articular pressure depends on the indications for the arthroscopic procedure, bleeding tendency, and the possibility of ischemia.
Table 15
Initial Pressure Settings

All settings are based on the use of a high-flow sheath or secondary inflow portal (suprapatellar, etc.).
To obtain a clear fluid environment, slowly increase the distention pressure beginning with the initial pressure settings in Table 15.

Operation and Frequently Used Functions DualWave Arthroscopy Pump User’s Guide WARNING! The initial pressure settings are recommendations. It is always appropriate and prudent to use the lowest possible pressure setting to minimize extravasation and any other pressure-related injury to the patient. 5.2 How to Operate the AR-6480 in INFLOW ONLY Mode WARNING! The extension or patient tubing must be replaced before each new patient and/or procedure. 1. After adjusting the required pressure using the pressure set buttons [Table 3, II or V], remove the cap from the patient end of the tubing. 2. Open all appropriate tubing clamps. 3. Activate the pump motor by pressing RUN [Table 3 or VI]. 4. Fill the entire length of the tubing with fluid to remove any air bubbles. NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the air within the sensor chamber [g] on the pump tubing set. 5. After the air has been purged from the tubing, close the clamp at the patient end of the tubing. The rollers [13] should stop turning. This is a safety check to ensure that the sensor system is working properly. § If the rollers do not stop, ensure the clamp is firmly closed. § If the rollers turn continuously, the pressure line connector [e] may not be functioning properly. Replace the pump tubing. 6. Connect the tubing to the inflow cannula. NOTE: A high-flow arthroscope sheath should be used for optimum flow when rinsing through the inflow cannula. 7. Open the clamp on the tubing to release the flow. Once the set pressure is reached, the pump will reduce flow to maintain the set pressure. When the pressure drops, the flow automatically increases until the set pressure is achieved. If the set pressure cannot be attained, (no fluid restriction at the end of the distal end of the tubing) flow will not exceed the user setting. 8. When the procedure is completed, close all clamps and disable the pump motor.
