IVAC™ PCAM™ Syringe Pump General Information

1 General Information Introduction The IVAC™ PCAM™ Syringe Pump (hereinafter referred to as Pump) is designed to provide a small, self-administered dose of analgesic, as and when the patient demands it by activating a hand operated button. The clinician can select limits for various parameters, including the size of each individual dose, the minimum time between doses and the number of doses allowed during a period. In parallel to the patient controlled operation the Pump allows the clinician to set an automatic loading dose which will be delivered at the onset of treatment. Similarly a continuous background infusion which is delivered irrespective of the patients demands for analgesia, can also be selected. In addition, the Pump will automatically record valuable information about each patients treatment and their individual demands for analgesia. This allows further analysis of the frequency with which analgesia is being requested, the total dose delivered etc.

Product Familiarity Prior to operation of the Pump and prior to attempting any repairs or servicing, carefully read the Directions for Use (DFU) As part of continuous improvement, product enhancements and changes are introduced from time to time.

Purpose of this Manual This Technical Service Manual describes how to set up, test and maintain the IVAC PCAM Syringe Pump. This manual is intended for use by personnel experienced in medical equipment testing and maintenance procedures­. This manual has been prepared for use by qualified service personnel only. CareFusion recommends that all servicing should only be carried out by CareFusion certified service personnel.

IVAC™ PCAM™ Syringe Pump General Information

General Precautions

w

Prior to using this Pump, carefully read the Operating Precautions described in the Directions for Use (DFU).

This Pump contains static-sensitive components. Observe strict precautions for the protection of static sensitive components when attempting to repair and service the Pump. An explosion hazard exists if the Pump is used in the presence of flammable anaesthetics. Exercise care to locate the Pump away from any such hazardous sources. Dangerous Voltage. An electrical shock hazard exists if the casing of the Pump is opened or removed. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

M

This Pump is protected against the effects of high energy radio frequency emissions and is designed to be fail safe if extremely high levels of interference are encountered. Should false alarm conditions be encountered, either remove the source of the interference or regulate the infusion by another appropriate means. If the Pump is dropped, subjected to excessive moisture, humidity or high temperature, or otherwise suspected to have been damaged, remove it from service for inspection by qualified service personnel.

IVAC™ PCAM™ Syringe Pump General Information

Patient Hand Set The electronic patient hand set is designed to be ambidextrous and suitable for both adult and paediatric use. The indicator light can be configured to show when the PCA dose is available or being delivered. Should the clinical situation require it, the indicator light can be disabled. The PCA button will provide feed-back on all, or just good demands. See Chapter 2, 'General Options' for HANDSET MODE configuration details.

The patient handset does not contain any latex.

The hand set connector is a latching (but non-locking) connector. To remove, hold the body of the connector and pull away from the Pump. If required, the Pump can be operated in continuous or clinician over-ride modes without the hand set connected. Note: An alarm warning will operate if the hand set is disconnected from the Pump while it is in operation, or when the handset is connected to the Pump with the PCA button depressed.

Select NEXT to step through the self-test routines until the display reads EOI opto: x (where x is the current status of the EOI detector). 3. Move the plunger holder to the right. The display will read EOI opto: 0 4. Load an empty 50ml syringe (see list of suitable syringes below), squeeze the finger grips and move the plunger holder slowly to the left. 5. Check the display switches from 0 to 1. The position at which the display changes is the EOI point and it depends on the type of syringe in use.

IVAC™ PCAM™ Syringe Pump Configuration and Calibration

Teach Learn A Pump can be configured/reconfigured by transferring data from one Pump (Teacher Pump) to another Pump (Learner Pump) via the serial port.

Equipment required • RS232 cable (1000SP01008) • Two Pumps

Recommendations: a) Use a 'master' Pump (with the RAM cleared - test 611 - then fully reconfigured) from which to undergo Teach/Learn b) To ensure successful data transfer, use two Pumps with the same version of software

Procedure 1. Connect the Teacher Pump to the Learner Pump using the RS232 cable. 2. On the Teacher Pump, enter the access code 168 and on the Learner Pump, enter the access code 167. 3. While in progress, the data being transferred is listed by item number on the Pump display, marked with either Pass or Fail indicating whether or not the data was transferred successfully. Where an item is marked as Fail, the original setting is not changed. The tables below list the data items. Item

4. When the process has finished, select the OK option. Possible reasons for Teach/Learn failure: • Software versions are different, see 'Recommendations' above • Loose cable connection or faulty RS232 cable Note: Once Teach Learn is complete, all configuration settings on the Learner Pump, including DRUG NAMES AND SAFETY LIMITS, must be checked against the Teacher Pump (original source).

IVAC™ PCAM™ Syringe Pump Configuration and Calibration

Calibration Procedures Syringe Size Calibration (243) To calibrate the syringe size detection system, follow the two-point calibration procedure described below. Calibration tools required:

1000TG00055 (Syringe Sizing Spacer) Supplied separately or as part of the Alaris™ Calibration Kit (1000SP00373)

Calibration procedure: • Enter the access code 243. • Fit calibration tool into position on the Pump and close the clamp, following Steps 1 - 3 below. -- At each step, CALIBRATE is displayed if value is within tolerances. -- Select CALIBRATE to store calibration point. Select NEXT to continue to the next screen. Notes: 1) If CALIBRATE is not displayed, check for correct positioning of calibration tool. If calibration cannot be performed, repairs to Pump may be necessary. 2) The calibration values shown below are for illustrative purposes only.

Step 1: Position the narrow end of the calibration tool under the syringe clamp 243

Confirmatory Check - To confirm that the syringe sizing calibration has been performed correctly, select a syringe (preferably 50ml), load and confirm the correct syringe type. Verify that the correct syringe size is detected and displayed.

IVAC™ PCAM™ Syringe Pump Configuration and Calibration

Occlusion Calibration (717) To set the Pump occlusion alarm level, follow the calibration procedure described below. To test the occlusion alarm levels, see 'Occlusion Alarm Levels Test' in Chapter 3. Note: To convert Kilograms of Force (kgf ) to Newtons N multiply by 9.806650. For example 10 kgf = 98.07N.

A

Excessive force will damage the plunger mechanism. Do not apply more than 10 kgf ±0.05 kgf to the plunger mechanism at any time.

Calibration tools required:

0000TG00200 (Digital Occlusion Test Gear, top) or 0000TG00020 (Dial Occlusion Test Gear, bottom) and 0000JG00014 (Plunger Protect) Supplied separately or as part of the Alaris Calibration Kit (1000SP00373)

Calibration procedure: • Enter the access code 717. • Select the OK option to start the drive, following Steps 1-5 below. Notes: 1) If CALIBRATE is not displayed, check for correct positioning of calibration tool. If calibration cannot be performed, repairs to Pump may be necessary. 2) The calibration values shown below are for illustrative purposes only.

Step 1: Start drive (without calibration tool fitted) 717
