Introduction The Alaris™ PC unit section of this User Manual provides procedures and information applicable to the Alaris System and the PC unit. Each of the other major sections provides productspecific procedures and information. The Alaris System is a modular system intended for adult, pediatric, and neonatal care. It consists of the PC unit, the Guardrails™ Suite MX, and up to four detachable infusion and/ or monitoring modules (channels). The Alaris Auto-ID module can be included as a fifth module.
WARNING Read all instructions before using the Alaris System. CAUTION
Only
Guardrails Suite MX for the Alaris System brings a new level of medication error prevention to the point of patient care. The Guardrails Suite MX features medication dosing, concentration delivery rate, and optional initial programming guidelines for up to 30 patient-specific care areas, referred to as Profiles. Each Profile contains a specific Drug Library, an IV Fluid library, and channel labels, as well as instrument configurations appropriate for the care area. Optional drug- or IV Fluid-specific Clinical Advisories provide visual messages. Dosing limits for each Guardrails drug entry or rate limits for each IV Fluid entry can be a Hard Limit that cannot be overridden during infusion programming and/or a Soft Limit that can be overridden, based on clinical requirements.

Introduction (Continued) A Data Set is developed and approved by the facility’s own multi-disciplinary team using the Guardrails Editor software, the PC-based authoring tool. A Data Set is then transferred to the Alaris System by qualified personnel. The approved Data Sets are maintained by the Editor Software for future updates and reference. Information about an Alert that occurs during use is stored within the PC unit, and can be accessed using the Guardrails CQI Reporter software. Documentation provided with Alaris System products might reference product not present in your facility or not yet available for sale in your area. A superscript number (for example, ) identifies additional information provided as a NOTE at the end of the procedure. Intended Use The Alaris™ System with Guardrails™ Suite MX is intended for use in professional healthcare facilities that utilize infusion devices for the delivery of fluids, medications, blood, and blood products. The Alaris System with Guardrails Suite MX is intended to provide trained healthcare caregivers a way to automate the programming of infusion parameters, thereby decreasing the amount of manual steps necessary to enter infusion data. All data entry and validation of infusion parameters is performed by the trained healthcare professional according to a physician's order. The Alaris System with Guardrails Suite MX is an interoperable system capable of communicating and exchanging data accurately, effectively, securely, and consistently with different information technology systems, software applications, and networks, in various settings; and exchanging data such that the clinical or operational purpose and meaning of the data are preserved and unaltered. WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS: Product-specific warnings and cautions, covered in the applicable sections of this User Manual, provide information needed to safely and effectively use the Alaris System. WARNING A statement that alerts the user to the possibility of injury, death, or other serious adverse reactions associated with the use or misuse of the device.

Getting Started Introduction This section of the User Manual provides PC unit (Model 8015) and Alaris System instructions and information. It is used in conjunction with: •
PC Unit/ Pump Module Technical Service Manual
•
Product-specific sections of this User Manual
•
System Maintenance software (and its instructions) for Alaris System check-in, maintenance, and wireless configuration
The PC unit is the core of the Alaris System and provides a common user interface for programming infusions and monitoring, which helps to reduce complexity at the point of care. The display uses color to clearly communicate critical programming, infusion, monitoring and hospital-defined policy information.
WARNING Read all instructions, including those
for the attached module(s) and applicable accessories, before using the Alaris System. CAUTION
Only
The wireless network card provides wireless communication capability between the Alaris System and Alaris Systems Manager. The combined use of the Alaris System and Alaris Systems Manager is integrated into a facility’s existing network infrastructure. When enabled, the Alaris Systems Manager allows the exchange of information between the Alaris Systems Manager and the Alaris System. The PC unit can be operated manually or in concert with the information exchanged with the Alaris Systems Manager. If communication with the wireless network is interrupted (for example, out of range), the Alaris System can be used, as intended, in the manual mode.

General Setup and Operation Attach and Detach Module Modules can be attached to either side of the PC unit or to either side of another module. The process to attach or detach is the same for either side, whether attaching/detaching to/from a PC unit or another module. An individual hospital/facility can choose to permanently attach modules. To remove permanently attached modules, contact qualified service personnel.Inserting a finger or other object into the IUI connector, when the module is attached to the PC unit, could result in electrical shock. Attach Module The Alaris System is designed to operate a maximum of four infusion or monitoring modules. Modules added in excess of four are not recognized by the system. The Auto-ID module can be included as a fifth module. A module can be attached in any position; however, when mounted on an IV pole, it is recommended that a balanced configuration be maintained.
WARNING Inserting a finger or other object into the IUI connector, when the module is attached to the PC unit, could result in electrical shock.
Application of adhesive tape or other materials to the sides of the PC unit and modules can prevent proper latching. 1.
Position free module at a 45° angle, aligning IUI connectors.
