•Press the ENTER key. The display should now show 0/0.

MG GIVEN Mode Check

•Press the NEXT key to advance to the Milligrams Given screen. The display should now show 2.0 mg, if the DOSE key and Remote Dose cord were tested. If only the DOSE key was tested, the display will show 1.0. (If the above steps have not been followed exactly, different values may appear.)

•Press the ENTER key. The display should now show 0.0 mg.

Air Detector Test (if applicable)

This test will verify the function of the optional air detector. To perform this test, the CADD-Prizm®pump must have an air detector installed and the air detector must be turned on. The previous program from the DOSE key check (page 26) can be used to perform this test.

•Attach an empty Medication Cassette reservoir or CADD® administration set to the pump.

•Latch and lock the set to the pump.

•Open the air detector door and thread the tubing through the groove.

•Close the door making sure the tubing does not get pinched or kinked.

•Start the pump.

•The pump should respond with a continuous two-tone alarm and the display should read:

Air in line detected

Pump will not run

Next to silence

•Press NEXT to silence the alarm, and re- move the Medication Cassette reservoir or CADD® administration set.

•Now attach a Medication Cassette reservoir containing fluid and a primed extension set with anti-siphon valve, or a primed CADD® administration set with anti-siphon valve to the pump. Make certain there is no air in the fluid path.

•Latch and lock the set to the pump.

•Open the air detector door and thread the tubing through the groove.

•Close the door making sure the tubing does not get punched or kinked.

•Start the pump.

•Deliver a demand dose. (NOTE: five minutes must have passed since the delivery of the last demand dose.)

•The pump should deliver the dose without an air detection alarm.

Occlusion Accuracy Tests

This manual provides two testing options for the Occlusion Pressure Range Test and the Accuracy Test. Only one option needs to be performed. It is not necessary to perform both Option 1 and Option 2.

Downstream Occlusion Pressure Range Test (Option 1)

Description

Pressure is generated by activating the pumping mechanism with an attached filled, clamped Medication Cassette reservoir. The pump is started and a Demand Dose is given until the high pressure alarm sounds.

Equipment needed

50- or 100-ml Medication Cassette reservoir containing water.

Procedure

1.Insert a battery and wait for the pump to power up.

2.Attach a Medication Cassette reservoir contain- ing water to the pump. Latch and lock the cassette.

3.Prime the Medication Cassette reservoir tubing. The tubing should be filled with fluid to the end of the luer lock connector. The system must be free from air bubbles for this test.

4.Close the slide clamp on the distal end of the tubing near the female luer of the Medication Cassette reservoir.
