• When priming :
♦
Ensure patient is not connected.
♦
Ensure air is expelled from line prior to beginning
infusion (unexpelled air in line could have serious
consequences).
Failure to prime correctly can delay infusion delivery and
cause the total volume to be infused to read higher than
the actual total delivered to the patient.
• Discard if packaging is not intact or protector caps are
unattached.
• Use only Alaris
®
Pump Module/Gemini Infusion
System administration sets with the Alaris
®
Pump
Module. The use of any other set may cause improper
instrument operation, resulting in an inaccurate fluid
delivery or other potential hazard. For a list of compatible
sets, reference the Set Compatibility Card (provided
separately).
• Use only standard single-use disposable syringes (with
luer-lock connectors) and administration sets, designed
for use on syringe pumps, with the Alaris
®
Syringe
Module. The use of any other syringe or
administration set may cause improper instrument
operation, resulting in an inaccurate fluid delivery or
pressure sensing, or other potential hazards. For a list of
compatible syringes, reference "Compatible Syringes". For
a list of compatible sets, reference the Set Compatibility
Card (provided separately).
• Before loading or unloading the syringe , always turn
off fluid flow to the patient, using the tubing clamp or
stopcock. Uncontrolled fluid flow can occur when the
administration set is not clamped or turned off, and
may cause serious injury or death.
