5.3 How to Operate the AR-6480 in INFLOW/OUTFLOW Mode
WARNING!
The extension, patient, and/or outflow tubing must be replaced before each new
patient and/or procedure.
1. Follow the steps as outlined in section 5.2.
2. Add the outflow tube set to the AR-6480.
3. The sensor will detect that the outflow tubing has been added and
change the controls and icons on the operator display to signify
INFLOW/OUTFLOW mode.
4. The red waste tubing end should be attached to a waste bag or suction
device/container.
5. The end of the clear tubing labeled SHAVER should be attached to the
shaver suction port.
6. The end of the blue tubing labeled CANNULA can be attached to an
outflow cannula, working cannula, or left unutilized.
NOTE: If the CANNULA tubing end is not used, leave unclamped or set cannula
suction to off.
5.4 How to Operate the AR-6480 in LAVAGE Mode
The AR-6480 pump has a LAVAGE function for hemostatic purposes. The
LAVAGE mode is accessible in INFLOW ONLY and INFLOW/OUTFLOW MODE.
WARNING!
User-programmed “Pressure Set” values are increased by as much as 50% to a
maximum of 120 mmHg during the LAVAGE function. Exercise caution to avoid
injury to the patient.
1. Press the LAVAGE button [Table 3, i or I] to enable this function. The
LAVAGE button should turn dark blue in color and begin a
countdown. The pressure will be increased to the factory default of a
50% increase for 120 seconds or to the user-defined parameters.
2. The LAVAGE mode will stop when the countdown reaches zero, or if
the user presses the LAVAGE button a second time.
