Pump Model Determination
To identify the pump model prior to an Emergency MRI scan
use the following methods:
•
Inquiry by programmer:
Identifies model either as
Prometra
®
or Prometra
®
II
on the Programmer’s
Inquiry Screen. Contact Flowonix Technical Solutions at 855-356-9665 if you require access to a
Flowonix Programmer.
•
Patient ID Card:
Identifies the pump model either as
Prometra
®
II
(Model #
13827
) or
Prometra
®
(Model #
11827
) as noted in the examples on the following page.
o
Note:
Patients with
Prometra
®
and Prometra
®
II Pumps
also have Medical Alert bracelets that
indicate that the pump must be emptied prior to an MRI.
•
Contact patient’s pump management physician:
The patient’s medical records indicate the pump
model and serial number implanted.
Flowonix provides medical chart labels to facilitate patient
record documentation.
•
Pump serial number:
There is a distinct difference in the serial numbers for the Prometra
®
Pump
versus the Prometra
®
II Pump. The Prometra
®
II pump’s serial number ends with an X, while the
Prometra
®
Pump’s serial number ends with a number.

from our patient registration system.
This number is staffed 24 hours a day.

Perform an X-ray of the pump:
The Prometra
®
II pump can be differentiated from the Prometra
®
Pump via X-rays as shown on the following page. The image of the Prometra
®
II Pump shows the
addition of the flow-activated valve (FAV) within the Catheter Access Port.
