detect upstream or downstream occlusions, inability to charge
battery, and/or decreased battery life.
WARNING Confirm Safe Operation.
Never operate the SIGMA Spectrum Infusion Pump unless all of the
following safe operations are being practiced.
Always confirm safe, accurate Pump operation by:
 Ensuring that IV sets or container vents are properly functioning,
that tubing clamps are in the proper positions and that tubing is
free from kinks or signs of collapse outside the Pump to prevent
undetected upstream occlusions.
 Observing the drip chamber to verify that there is no flow from the
fluid container when the Pump is stopped.
 Ensuring the drip rate approximates the Pump’s flow rate during
RUN operation.
 Ensuring correct patient, correct route and correct drug.
 Ensuring Pump settings, for example; drug/concentration, dose
mode, dose rate and time.
 Monitoring vital signs and IV access sites per facility’s standard
practice of care.
 Monitoring the infusion to ensure that the infusion is delivered as
intended.
 Periodically checking battery status and replace if necessary.
