SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PUMP OVERVIEW
The T34 is a small, lightweight, robust, battery powered infusion pump. The size and weight of the T34 makes it ideal for ambulatory use in a hospital or alternate site / homecare setting. It is equally suitable for adults or paediatric use. Safety features include access code protected areas, keypad lock and event log. The T34 syringe pump may be used to deliver indicated medications via any common infusion routes including intravenous and subcutaneous. The T34 offers 3 point syringe detection enabling the pump to identify all commonly used (or programmed) syringe brands. This feature also enables the pump to calculate the syringe volume and, depending on the mode of operation, deliver the contents over a specified duration or as mls per hour infusion therefore minimising the risk of programming errors. The sensors also activate an alarm if the syringe is removed or partially displaced during infusion.
1.2 MODES OF OPERATION
The pump can be configured (and locked) to one of three modes of operation, the default mode of operation is Lock on. The mode of operation options are: Lock on is delivering the contents of a syringe over a fixed duration (pump default 24 hours). The pump automatically calculates the ml/hour rate based on the fixed duration (lock on) and the confirmed deliverable volume. Lock off is delivering the contents of a syringe over the default duration or a duration inputted by the user. The pump automatically calculates the ml/hour rate based on the confirmed duration and the confirmed deliverable volume. Rate mode is delivering the contents of a syringe by ml/hr as inputted by the user. The pump calculates the duration from the entered ml/hour rate and the syringe volume detected by the pump.
1.3 INTENDED USE
The T34 syringe pump is designed for infusion of medications or fluids requiring continuous or intermittent delivery at precisely controlled infusion rates through all clinically acceptable routes of administration including intravenous, subcutaneous, percutaneous, epidural in close proximity to nerves, and into an intraoperative site (soft tissue/body cavity/surgical wound site). The system is intended for patients who require maintenance medications, analgesics, chemotherapeutic agents and general fluids therapy in hospital and homecare environments.
1.4 CONTRAINDICATIONS
Infusion of blood and blood products where appropriate, consult with pump manufacturer. Infusion of insulin. Infusion of critical medications whose stoppage or interruption could cause serious injury or death. Use in ambulatory regimens by patients who do not possess the mental, physical or emotional capability to self-administer their therapy; or who are not under the care of a responsible individual.

If a software change occurs and the operation/specification for the pump changes, new or additional operating instructions will be issued, if needed. All illustrations used in this manual show typical settings and values that may be used in setting up the functions of the pump. These settings and values are for illustrative use only. The complete range of settings and values are listed in the specifications section of this manual. This operation manual document has been developed with consideration to the requirements in relevant Harmonised Standards. Data presented in the technical specifications reflect specific test conditions defined in this standard. Other external factors such as varying back pressure, temperature, head height, set usage, fluid restrictions, solution viscosity or combinations of these factors, may result in deviations from the performance data enclosed.
1.6 WARNINGS AND NOTES
Warnings and notes will be seen throughout this manual. These are described as: NOTE: Indicate that the information that follows is additional important information, a tip that will help you recover from an error or point you to related information within the manual. WARNING: Warnings advise of circumstances that could result in injury or death to the user/operator or circumstances that could result in damage to the device. Read and understand this manual and all warnings before operating the T34 syringe pump.
1.7 OPERATING PRECAUTIONS This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)this device may not cause harmful interference (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Although the T34 syringe pump has been designed and manufactured to exact specifications, it is not intended to replace trained personnel in the supervision of infusions. CME Medical will assume no responsibility for incidents which may occur if the product is not used, stored or transported in accordance with the environmental conditions stipulated in this document and on the package labelling. This syringe pump is designed for ambulatory use and should withstand everyday handling. If the pump is dropped onto a hard surface, or is suspected of being dropped, the operation and calibration should be checked by a qualified technician. The specified accuracy of the pump can only be maintained if the pump is used, maintained and serviced in accordance with the instructions given in this manual. If the pump has failed to calibrate during the servicing procedure, it must be returned for repair or disposal. Adjustments, maintenance, or repair made by un-certified service personnel may impair the operation of the pump and/or the accuracy of the infusion. Make sure any adjustments, maintenance, or repair of the device are carried out only by authorised and skilled technicians.

CME Medical T34 Operations Manual Rev 1.4
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 personnel. The pump has been designed to be as safe as possible to handle; however, care should be exercised to avoid trapping of fingers or other body parts in the mechanism. The T34 syringe pump system should be operated within a temperature range of 15°C (59°F) to 45°C (113°F). Operation at temperatures outside this range may affect accuracy.
INFUSION PRECAUTIONS Carefully read and follow accompanying set instructions for priming the set and the recommended set change interval. The syringe and administration set should be disposed of in an appropriate manner, considering the nature of the residual fluid that may be contained within and in accordance with the hospital/ homecare provider’s disposal practices. Drugs for infusion to be used with the pump may only be prescribed by a qualified medical practitioner. Caution must be exercised in the selection of drugs and the amount and rate intended to be delivered via any infusion pump. If the drug contained in the syringe will be exposed to extreme environmental conditions for prolonged time periods, it is important to select drugs that will not change pharmacologically upon such exposure. As with all automatic infusion devices, whenever a toxic or dangerous level of drug is stored in the reservoir, constant/frequent monitoring of the infusion is required. In all applications, time to alarm under occlusion or other fault conditions will depend on the infusion rate and levels of alarm settings. It is recommended to consider these parameters when using drugs requiring infusion stability or low flow rates and therefore a quick time to alarm.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS Do not use hard or sharp objects on the keypad. Do not bathe or shower whilst using the pump. The pump is resistant to a limited amount of splashing, but its construction does not make it resistant to large amounts of spraying or immersion in liquids. Damage to the internal components may result. 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 personnel. Do not operate the pump near high-energy radio-frequency emitting equipment, such as electro-surgical cauterising equipment as this may result in false alarm signals or error messages being displayed.

2.2 ACCESS CODES
The T34 has two levels of healthcare provider access code protection to prevent unauthorised changes to set up, configuration or programming. Although no access code is required to turn the pump on and run an infusion, certain settings and features may be configured and locked based on patient need. In normal use the pump user will not see these fields or be prompted for access codes. NOTE: Codes will only be provided by CME Medical to designated and authorised clinical or technical staff when they have been trained and certified in their use. No access codes are contained in this manual. A level one access code allows access to “change set up” in the pump info menu. This code is provided to fully trained (by CME Medical) and authorised healthcare professionals. A level two access code allows access to the pump technician menu. This code is provided to fully trained (by CME Medical) and authorised electrical biomedical engineering personnel. WARNING: Do not attempt to access code protected areas if you are not trained or authorised to do so. Authorised personnel should not share codes with un-authorised personnel and only give the level of code access to the designated provider for the functions they will use in their clinical practise. NOTE: Technical staff must refer to CME Medical Technical services department for access codes and information on pump configuration and training.
2.3 KEYPAD LOCK
The keypad has a locking feature that prevents unintentional powering off of the unit. As well as the ability to lock or limit certain infusion parameters or pump settings, the T34 pump allows users to lock the operation of the keypad if concerned about patients, relatives or un-trained personnel tampering with the pump. To activate the keypad lock: With the pump infusing, press and hold the INFO key down until the black graphic moving from left (OFF) to right (ON) fills completely. A beep is heard, confirming that the lock has been activated. To deactivate the keypad lock: Repeat the above procedure. The graphic will now move from right (ON) to left (OFF). A beep is heard, confirming that the lock has been deactivated.
Lock Mode OFF
ON
For safety reasons the keypad lock does not affect the operation of the START or STOP keys as users or patients unaware of how to deactivate the lock may need to STOP an infusion in an emergency and/or re-start the infusion (e.g. after clearing an alarm). The keypad lock does not affect the INFO key for infusion monitoring purposes.

2.4 EVENT LOG
The event log shows a complete time and date stamped record of the last 512 pump events along with a record of pump status (volume infused, rate, etc) at the time of the event. Events recorded are hourly self-testing when an infusion is running and key presses. Event log data cannot be deleted or altered and it is not patient specific i.e. the 512 events are likely to span multiple patients recently treated with that particular pump. Each event is assigned a new number and the pump stores the last 512 in memory. For example, after some time, the first event to appear when you enter the events history may be number 754. This means there have been 754 events in this pumps life and events 242-754 are stored in this history. The pump deletes the oldest event in the log each time a new event occurs. To view the event log: Info Menu A. With no infusion running, press INFO key to access the Info menu:

2.5 POST OCCLUSION BOLUS REDUCTION SYSTEM
During an occlusion the pressure in the downstream section of the line and/or inside the syringe can increase above the occlusion pressure defined in pump settings. When the pump alarms the user must check the line and attempt to clear the occlusion. During an occlusion the pump’s Post Occlusion Bolus Reduction System feature will reverse the operation of the motor and drive the actuator backwards otherwise the pressure build up could cause a surge of fluid into the patient’ on release of the occlusion. If the pump is resumed/restarted following the backward movement of the actuator the user will notice that time is added to the time remaining to protect the original calculated rate.

2.6 SYRINGES
DEFAULT SYRINGE BRANDS AND SIZES The T34 ambulatory syringe pump is calibrated to operate with the most commonly used LUER LOCK syringe brands and programmed to recognise most commonly used syringe sizes ranging from 2 ml to 50 ml. Due to the physical length of the screw that drives the syringe plunger forward there are limits to the maximum amount that can be delivered from larger syringes and on some smaller syringes there is an undeliverable volume that will be left in the syringe once the actuator has driven to the zero position. DEFAULT SYRINGE BRANDS CONFIGURED FOR USE WITH THE T34 Braun Omnifix 2, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 50ml BD Plastipak 3, 5,10, 20, 30ml and 50ml Monoject 6, 12, 20, 35 and 50ml Codan/Once 2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 50ml Terumo 5, 10, 20, 30 and 50ml It is recommended that all but the brand of syringe in regular use are disabled via the BodyComm communication software to prevent accidental selection of the incorrect brand during set up. Should the need arise to programme the T34 to operate with a manufacturer and/or brand other than one of those listed above you should consult either your local medical engineering department or CME Medical Technical Services. WARNING: DO NOT use slip-tip syringes. Luer lock syringes must always be used to ensure secure connection of the infusion set and the pump is calibrated to luer lock. Failure to do so may result in under or over infusion as the dimension of some manufacturers slip-tip syringes differ from their own luer lock variants. WARNING: Some manufacturers have several brand names within their ranges (e.g. Braun Omnifix and Braun Perfusor). Only use the brands named above with the T34 as failing to do so could result in an under or over infusion. WARNING: Braun 2ml, Codan 2.5ml and Monoject 6ml syringes exhibit a slight undeliverable volume of 0.1ml due to their design. The T34 will display the volume as “VOLUME 2.4 (of 2.5ml)”. In this example the pump can only deliver 2.4 of the 2.5ml in the syringe and when the pump has driven as far forward as possible 0.1ml will be left in the syringe. WARNING: Use good aseptic technique when filling the syringe and priming the giving set. Patient infection may result from the use of non-sterile components. Maintain sterility of all disposable components and do not re-use singe use sets.
2.7 ADMINISTRATION SETS
The T34 pump can be operated with any extension set with a luer connection. However, it is recommended, to optimise system accuracy and performance, that proprietary sets from CME Medical are used. All sets have siphon/free flow protection.

At the end of the pre-loading sequence the actuator returns to the start position of the last infusion. If the user regularly uses the same syringe brand, size and fills to the same volume, powering off and on allows automatic actuator movement which returns the actuator to the correct position each time and should not require adjustment for a new programme/syringe.
T34 PROGRAMME PROTECTION Depending on clinical and infusion requirements the pump can be configured and locked to deliver an infusion by one of three modes of operation, lock on, lock off or rate mode. The programming specifically protects (and resumes) the rate. For example, if an infusion is resumed and the syringe volume has changed the delivery duration will change accordingly: If you increase the syringe volume and resume a programme the duration of delivery will increase. If you decrease the syringe volume and resume a programme the duration of delivery will decrease. RESUME OR NEW SYRINGE? There is only the current “programme” available in the pump memory at any one time. The screen prompt “YES to Resume, NO for New Syringe” displays when any of the following occurs:
After an alarm activation e.g. syringe displacement WARNING: When this prompt screen displays, before pressing any of the keys be sure you select the right option for the situation. When you press “NO” the current programme is immediately deleted and cannot be retrieved.
The pump is powered off (for any reason) and power is restored with a syringe in place. Completion of system purge.
Press YES to Resume
NO for New Syringe Effect on pump programming by key presses: If the user presses “YES to Resume” – the current programme is resumed (fixed rate). If the user presses “NO for New Syringe” the current programme is immediately deleted.
