Information
Priming is only accessible prior to starting the infusion.
The
key is not active when the menu screen is displayed.
During priming, the occlusion pressure level is set to its maximum
value 900 mmHg / 120 kPa / 17.4 PSI.
Priming is limited to 5 mL maximum. Above 5 mL, you must
release and press the
key again to restart priming.
Quick-Start
Quick-start is designed to decrease the delay of therapy when the
pump’s prime function is not used.
When quick-start is triggered, the infusion starts at a high flow rate
(120 mL/h) until the pump’s plunger driver starts pushing the syringe
plunger head. The flow rate then automatically switches to the
programmed value.
At the beginning of an infusion, quick-start is triggered or not triggered in
the following situations:
Prime Function
Configuration
Quick-start Trigger Rule
Mandatory
Not triggered
Advised
Not triggered
Not displayed
Triggered if flow rate is equal or inferior to 50 mL/h
and
the
automatic priming is not done.
Not triggered if the automatic priming is done by the user.
Information
Priming the line automatically ensures better pump performances than
using quick-start.
Warning
If the prime function is set as "Not displayed", and if the quick-start is
triggered, an undesired bolus may occur in some cases. Always prefer
the automatic prime function for life-sustaining drugs.
