General Use Procedure

Cuff Inflation
The individual channels for Cuff 1 and Cuff 2 operate independently. The
SmartPump display screen displays real-time pressure values and total
elapsed cuff inflation time for each cuff.
Intravenous Regional Anesthesia (IVRA) Lock
The Intravenous Regional Anesthesia (IVRA) Lock may be activated either
prior to or after inflation. The lock prevents accidental deflation of an
active cuff associated with a Bier Block procedure or the management of
two cuffs involved in a bi-lateral procedure.
In its unlocked state, the IVRA Lock icon resembles an unlocked padlock.
In a locked state, the icon changes to a locked padlock. See images
below:
The IVRA (
lock, unlock
) button is below the LCD, on the right.
If, when attempting to deflate the second cuff with the IVRA Lock enabled,
the SmartPump will produce an audible error-beep and the IVRA padlock
will blink.
