The SmartPump dual channel surgical tourniquet inflation system is designed for use by
qualified medical personnel to temporarily impede blood flow in a patient’s extremity.
Its dual channel design supports, single cuff, bilateral, & Bier Block procedures and allows for simultaneous surgery of both an
upper and lower limb. Each cuff’s unique pressure and time settings are displayed, controlled and monitored independently, in
real-time. The system uses single port cuffs.
system
backup
The unit’s internal nickel metal hydride (NiMH) backup battery is automatically charged whenever the system is plugged into
an AC power outlet. The fully charged internal battery provides up to 5 hours of AC-free operation as a safety backup. The battery
is recharged to approximately 80% level within 45 minutes.
When the system is “Off” and unplugged it automatically conserves its internal battery for up to 30 days by shifting to a
power conservation mode.

Battery Power
Internal Battery
The SmartPump’s internal battery automatically provides back-up power if AC battery power is interrupted. The internal battery when
fully charged supports up to five hours of operation.
If, at initial start-up, the SmartPump is not plugged into AC power, the following occurs:
• “No AC” is displayed on the lower left of the LCD
• The Alarm Indicator Mute button flashes red.
battery
Power
Pressing the Alarm Indicator Mute button within 30 seconds of initial start-up will apply power to the SmartPump using its internal
battery. In this mode, the Alarm Indicator Mute button will return to green, the “No AC” indicator will remain illuminated and the
battery symbol will indicate the amount of battery charge.
NOTE: If, at initial start-up, there is no AC present and Alarm Indicator Mute button is not pressed within 30 seconds, the
SmartPump will automatically return to its ‘OFF (standby)’ mode automatically. This feature prevents the SmartPump from
unintentionally being used in a (back up) battery mode and prevents accidental battery discharge during transport and storage.
If AC power is interrupted during normal use, the SmartPump will use its internal battery automatically. Press the Alarm Indicator Mute
button to acknowledge the change in power source. The Alarm Indicator Mute button returns to green.
When AC power is restored, the SmartPump will return to its normal AC operation automatically.
When the SmartPump is unplugged and turned ‘OFF (standby),’ it converses its internal battery automatically using a power
conservation mode. If fully charged, the internal battery is kept charged for up to 750 hours.
Low Battery Power Alarms
In “Low Battery” alarm conditions, connect the system to AC power as soon as possible. Should AC power be
unavailable and the battery becomes fully discharged, the system will close all valves to maintain cuff pressure. Manual cuff
deflation is required.
• 30 minutes of battery runtime remaining will trigger an audible alarm; the Alarm Mute button flashes red and the
battery “fuel gauge” blinks. The alarm may be muted for 15 minutes.
• 15 minutes of battery runtime remaining triggers the alarm sequence (above). Alarm Mute is 1 minute, indicating
the battery is “minutes” from full discharge.

Bier Block Procedure
Follow your institution’s standard for Bier Block procedures.
The Dual Channel will support a Bier Block cuff with its Cuff 1 and Cuff 2 tourniquet controls.
• Use of the IVRA Lock prevents accidental deflation of a cuff (tourniquet).
• To engage the IVRA Lock, press IVRA Lock after the cuff is inflated. The IVRA padlock icon
will move to the locked position.
1. Begin the procedure by sequencing the inflation and deflation of the Bier Block cuff bladders according to your institution’s
standard practice. Press the IVRA Lock once the cuffs have been inflated.
2. When the procedure is complete, unlock the IVRA Lock to deflate the remaining cuff bladder, or
bier block
procedure
3. Reduce the cuff bladder pressure in stages. Follow standard Set/Save pressure adjustment steps (page 3).
4. When the incremental deflation sequence is complete, unlock the IVRA Lock and fully deflate the cuff bladder.
NOTE: Press Inflate to instantly interrupt a cuff deflation or to return a cuff to its original higher pressure setting.
CAUTION: During a Bier Block or dual cuff procedure, confirm status of the primary cuff (bladder) before initiating a deflation.

Alarms & Service Codes
Responding to Alarms
When an Alarm event occurs, the following happens:
• The Alarm Mute button flashes red.
• An audible alarm sounds.
• The associated graphic or numeric will flash.
• When the target procedure time has been reached, the Time display blinks.
Press Alarm Mute to silence the alarm. The audible Time alarm will remain muted for 15 minutes.
Pressure alarms may be muted for 30 seconds or 1 minute depending on their severity.
Once the alarm is muted, the audible Alarm indicator is illuminated with a slash.
Correcting the condition causing the alarm will automatically clear and reset the alarm system.
alarms &
Service codes
Common alarms are typically corrected by:
(a) eliminating a leaking pneumatic connection or replacing a leaking cuff
(b) adding time to the procedure Timer or
(c) connecting to AC power
Service Codes
Service codes are summarized in the Service Code section of the Instructions for Use. When the system detects
a condition that requires service, a service code with a wrench is displayed and the unit will alarm. Note the
code and call the Stryker Customer Service Department for support and troubleshooting assistance: 800-253-3210.

System Backup
Using the System’s Backup Capability
Should one side (Cuff 1 or Cuff 2) become inoperable, the user may switch sides and continue operation.
The following steps summarize the techniques used to “switch” a cuff from one side of the tourniquet to the other as “backup”
when an active cuff is at risk and no alternative system is available. This procedure should be used only when absolutely
necessary. Adapt these guidelines as necessary to reflect your institution’s protocols.
Always confirm all pneumatic connections and cuffs are leak-free prior to any action.
Single Cuff
• During initial inflation (after confirming all connections are secure), if the tourniquet cannot reach or maintain target
cuff pressure, discontinue use.
• After inflation, if cuff pressure is at risk and/or tourniquet alarms cannot be resolved:
1. Clamp off the inflated cuff’s fill-line and remove it from the unit’s cuff connector. Note: This action will cause the unit to alarm.
2. Press Deflate on the failed side to clear its alarm state.
3. Move the clamped fill-line to the other side and insert it into cuff connector.
4. Press Inflate and release clamp as the system takes control. This action may cause a momentary pressure alarm.
5. Adjust Pressure and Cuff Timer as necessary.
Bier Block Cuff
• During initial inflation, if the primary cuff cannot reach or maintain target cuff pressure (prior to anesthetic injection) discontinue use.
• If prior to deflation of the primary cuff (bladder) the second cuff (bladder) cannot reach or maintain target pressure, do
the following:
1. Clamp off primary cuff (to retain pressure) and disconnect its fill-line. Note: This action will cause the unit to alarm.
2. Clamp off the second cuff’s fill-line and connect to the primary cuff’s connector.
3. The system will inflate the second cuff to target pressure.
4. After confirming the second cuff (bladder) is at target pressure, the clamped primary cuff may be released.
5. Adjust Pressure and Cuff Timer as necessary.
WARNING: In the unlikely event of a complete unit failure, such as simultaneous loss of AC and battery power, the unit is designed to
close and lock its internal valves in order to protect an inflated cuff from unintended deflation. Deflate by manually disconnecting cuff.

Usage
Indications
A tourniquet is indicated when it is necessary to reduce blood flow and/or when greater visualization of the operating field is
imperative or desired. It is designed to temporarily occlude or decrease blood flow in a patient’s extremities during surgical
procedures of those extremities and is not a substitute for proper homeostasis. Typical procedures include:
• Arthroscopy
• Total wrist joint repair
• Finger joint replacement
• Bone grafts
• Tendon repair
• Knee joint replacement
• Nerve repair
• Other surgeries of the extremities identified by your institution
requiring temporary occlusion of blood flow
Contraindications
A tourniquet is not suitable for ligatures or cauterization to stop hemorrhages and should never be applied without consideration
of the local anatomy. The Stryker SmartPump dual channel and associated tourniquet is contraindicated for use on the human torso.
Tourniquets are contraindicated for use on patients exhibiting unusual or complicated neurological or vascular problems of the
extremities such as arteriovascular impairment phlebitis, infection, uncontrolled diabetes, and/or other associated problems.
Current medical literature lists the following as possible contraindications:
• Compromised vascular circulation
• Mellitus
• Post traumatic lengthy reconstruction
• Elbow surgery (associated with excessive swelling)
• Skin grafts in which bleeding must be readily distinguished.
• Severe scar tissue in cuff zone
• Open leg fractures
• Severe crushing injuries
• Severe hypertension
• Presence of sickle cell disease or clotting disorder
All final decisions regarding use of a tourniquet are the responsibility of the attending physician.
Possible Adverse Effects
Excessive pressure or prolonged application potentially cause:
• Blood vessel trauma
• Reperfusion problems and arterial occlusion
• Mild, aching pain may develop in the limb
• Stiffness, weakness, reactive hyperemia, and skin discoloration
• Death, specific to the Bier Block procedure
usage
• Vascular complications
• Neuromuscular or neurological injuries
• Tourniquet pain
• Ischemia
• Venous emboli or thromboembolism
