SIGMA Spectrum Infusion System Pump Operating Software Version 8.00
Operator’s Manual For Use With MDL Version 8.0
NOTE: This statement applies to oxygen enriched environments,
such as oxygen tents. It is not meant to apply to patients on
breathing tubes. Refer to IEC-60601-2-24.
CAUTION ECG Artifacts Related to the Use of the SIGMA Spectrum
Infusion System.
Peristaltic infusion Pumps may produce what is known as
piezoelectric artifact on ECG monitors and similar types of monitoring
instruments. The SIGMA Spectrum Infusion System may produce this
effect when the Pump is running at rates in the higher ranges of
operation, this may be in the frequency range tracked by the ECG
monitor. The appearance of the artifact may be affected by set up
and/or connection of electrodes, leads or equipment. See the ECG
monitoring system documentation for recommendations on proper set
up including electrode connections, site preparation, monitor system
set up and electrode placement.
CAUTION Recyclable Battery Pack. Dispose of Properly.
The SIGMA Spectrum Infusion System contains a lithium-ion
rechargeable battery pack and a replaceable battery cell. Improper
disposal can result in hazards to humans or environmental
conditions.
Do not dispose of batteries in trash or in fire. These batteries are
recyclable and should be disposed of properly.
Contact an authorized disposal center or return battery to Baxter
for disposal if an authorized disposal center cannot be found.
CAUTION Cleaning the Pump and Pump Accessories.
Always wear gloves when cleaning Pump and Pump accessories.
Only use Baxter specified compatible cleaning fluids.
Do not allow fluid to seep inside the Pump (especially through the
keyhole, door latches, or rear case speaker vent) or severe
damage may occur.
Do not spray solutions directly on the Pump and Pump
accessories.
Do not autoclave or EtO (ethylene oxide) to sterilize Pumps or
Pump accessories.
Do not apply cleaners directly to battery packs exposed terminals.
Do not immerse any part of the Pump or battery.
Do not use phenol-based cleaners/disinfectants. Phenols degrade
plastics and membrane switches.
Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Do not use rigid cleaning instruments.
Always use a lint-free, foam tipped swab to clean the tube channel.
