•Remove the 50- or 100-ml reservoir and attach a CADD® administration set to the pump. Latch the cassette to the pump. The display should show “Admin Set Latched.”

•Lock the device by inserting a key into the lock and turning counterclockwise until the mark lines up with the solid dot. The display should show “Cassette Locked.”

•Unlock the cassette. The display should show “Cassette Unlocked.” Unlatch the cassette. The display should show “Cassette Unlatched/ Close Clamp To Prevent Free Flow.”

•Remove the administration set and attach a CADD-Prizm®high volume administration set to the pump (excludes PCA delivery mode). Latch the cassette to the pump. The display should show “High Volume Admin Set Latched.”

•Lock the device by inserting a key into the lock and turning counterclockwise until the mark lines up with the solid dot. The display should show “Cassette Locked.”

•Unlock the cassette. The display should show “Cassette Unlocked.” Unlatch the cassette. The display should show “Cassette Unlatched/ Close Clamp To Prevent Free Flow.”

NOTE:

The basic electrical and mechanical functions of the CADD-Prizm®pump are the same for each of the four delivery modes. Regardless of the delivery mode, the delivery accuracy and timing circuitry remains unchanged. Although functional testing of the CADD-Prizm®pump can be performed in any mode, the remaining tests are intended to be performed in the PCA delivery mode. Additional tests may be performed with the pump in a different delivery mode if desired.

The following three checks (LCD, motor and gear train, and Reservoir Volume is Zero alarm) should be performed in the sequence shown.

LCD Check

•Remove and reinsert the battery. After a few seconds, the LCD will display all off pixels (dots) followed by all on pixels. Examine the LCD for missing dark or light pixels.

•Program the pump to the following parameters:

Reservoir Volume:

2.0 ml

Units:

Milligrams

Concentration:

1.0 mg/ml

Continuous Rate:

30.0 mg/hr

Demand Dose:

0.0 mg

Milligrams Given:

0.0 mg (press the

 

ENTER key to clear)

•Press the NEXT key until reservoir volume is displayed on the LCD. Press the Y or N key until 2.0 ml is displayed. Then press the ENTER key. Select Milligrams for units and press the ENTER key. Select the Concentra- tion of 1.0 mg and press the ENTER key. Select the Continuous Rate of 30.0 mg/hr, then press the ENTER key. Select the Demand Dose of 0.0 mg, then press the ENTER key. Clear the Milligrams Given register by press- ing the ENTER key.

Motor and Gear Train Check

•Attach either a 50- or 100-ml Medication Cassette reservoir or CADD® administration set to the pump. Latch and lock the cassette.

•Select “Prime” from the Options menu by pressing the OPTIONS key, then the ENTER key. Now press and continue to hold the Y key. The pump should begin to prime. While priming the pump, listen to the motor for excessive noise or grinding sounds. Count the number of pump activations. The pump should prime ten double activations and then stop. The display should show “Continue Priming? Press Y or N.” Press the N key. Then press the NEXT key twice until the Reservoir Volume screen appears. The reser- voir volume should show 1.0 ml.

Reservoir Volume is Zero Alarm Check

•Press the OPTIONS key and select the Prime function by pressing the ENTER key. Repeat priming by pressing and holding the Y key.

The pump should prime ten double activa- tions and then stop. The pump will alarm and display “Reservoir Volume is Zero.” Press the NEXT key.

•Reprogram the reservoir volume to 1.0 ml. Press the NEXT key until Reservoir Volume is displayed on the LCD. Press the Y or N key until 1.0 ml is displayed. Then press the ENTER key.
