5. therefore our pump needs no calibration If you choose the correct tubing set the proper flow rate will be achieved Our tubing sets are statistically verified during manufacture and will deliver the appropriate flow rate under controlled conditions Cleaning Clean only those areas that are exposed and external No attempt should be made to clean any part of the pump that is not easily accessible Discontinue use of a pump that has been internally exposed to or immersed in fluid Wipe the surface with warm water and detergent or use any surface disinfectant compatible with acetyl butyl styrene ABS and polycarbonate PC plastics such as household bleach or hydrogen peroxide Avoid the use of alcohol or alcohol containing compounds as these tend to make ABS plastic brittle Wipe again with clean water to rinse If absolutely necessary you may clean the inside of the syringe shield by using along swab or bottlebrush and any cleaning agent compatible with ABS and PC plastics Alcohol is not recommended Storage The FREEDOM60 pump is recommended to be stored in a cool dry place and packaged tubing sets at room temperature approximately 16 30 C or 61 86 F Testing Flow Accuracy if required by your local protocol 1 Filla new syringe with 60ml of sterile water Remove all air from the syringe Attach a sterile FREEDOM60 Precision Flow Rate Tubing set to the syringe Remove all air from the tubing set Load the syringe into t
6. Do not use syringes smaller than 60ml The use of a smaller syringe may cause high pressures unsafe for the patient Before use carefully inspect the tubing set package Do not use the tubing set if the package is opened or damaged Do not re sterilize tubing sets Overuse of the slide clamp or storing tubing sets with the slide clamp engaged for long periods of time may damage the tubing and affect the infusion rate The black tab that pushes on the syringe plunger operates under high force Do not place fingers on the black tab or inside the syringe shield at any time Do not attempt to interfere with the movement of the black tab at any time Carefully inspect the FREEDOM60 Syringe Infusion Pump before use Verify its condition and test If repeated testing indicates the pump is not operating properly or at the appropriate rate of flow immediately discontinue use Do not attempt to open the pump housing or remove the syringe shield Do not operate if the syringe shield has been removed Do not attempt to remove the syringe or disconnect the tubing set without first turning the pump OFF and fully winding the large knob clockwise until the black tab has reached the end of its track The FREEDOM60 Syringe Infusion System does not have an alarm therefore no alarm will sound if an interruption to flow occurs There is no display of infusion status The pump is not suitable for use with medication where delay or under infusion could re
7. EEDOM60 automatically decreases the flow rate if there is an increase in resistance during the delivery The system will find equilibrium between the increasing resistance and flow rate It provides constant flow which tends to inhibit clots and holds full pressure after an infusion is complete to prevent blood or drug backflow The FREEDOM60 also eliminates concerns of a bolus overflow overdose or runaway infusion Indications for Use The FREEDOM60 Syringe Infusion System is indicated for the infusion of prescribed liquid medicines Contraindications The FREEDOM60 is not intended for the delivery of blood critical or life sustaining medications or for the infusion of insulin Critical may be defined as medication requiring greater accuracy of delivery such as CNS opiate depressants which in certain countries e g UK may be limited by local regulations CONSULT LOCAL REGULATORY AUTHORITIES A Caution Use the FREEDOM60 Syringe Infusion System only for the patient for whom the device is prescribed and only for its intended use Use only FREEDOM60 Precision Flow Rate Tubing sets manufactured by RMS Medical Products Use of any other tubing set may cause the syringe to eject from the pump and eventually cause internal damage to the pump Use of any other tubing set may also cause over delivery of fluids or medication to the patient Use only recommended 60ml syringes with the FREEDOM60 Do not use Terumo syringes
