NOTES, CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS
Notes
1. Refer to the control unit user interface and operator’s manual for additional cautions
and warnings.
2. Refer to the instructions for use of the chosen blood purification device for additional
cautions and warnings.
Cautions
1. Particular attention must be paid to extra corporeal blood volume with respect
to patient size. Consider the sum of the Prismaflex HP-X set blood volume plus
the blood volume of the blood purification device plus the blood volume of any
accessory or device if used (refer to “Specifications”).
2. If the patient is not immediately connected to the Prismaflex HP-X set after priming
is complete, flush the set with at least 500 mL priming solution [saline or alkaline
solution (pH = 7.3), with or without heparin added according to usual institutional
practice] prior to connecting the patient. This requires use of a new bag of priming
solution and new priming collection bag.
3. When not using the pre blood pump infusion circuit, it is recommended to clamp this
circuit close to its connection to the access line; this will prevent the sedimentation
of blood into the pre blood infusion line.
Warnings
1. Carefully read these instructions for use and the control unit operator’s manual
before using this product.
2. The use of operating procedures other than those published by the manufacturer
or the use of accessory devices not recommended by the manufacturer can result
in patient injury or death.
3. Use the Prismaflex HP-X set only with blood purification device equipped with
connectors compliant to ISO 8637. The use of blood purification device equipped
with other connectors can result in patient injury or death.
4. Store the Prismaflex set in a dry place, between 0° C (32° F) and 30° C (86° F).
5. Do not use this set if the packaging is damaged, if the sterilization caps are missing
or loose, or if any of the lines in the set are kinked.
6. To prevent contamination, this Prismaflex set must be used as soon as its
packaging and sterilization caps are removed.
7.
Use aseptic techniques when handling all blood and fluid lines in the set.
8. Prismaflex sets are compatible with the usual disinfection agents used for aseptic
setup; however solvents and other chemicals, if used in contact with the product,
could damage the set.
9.
Tightening Luer connections with an excessive force can damage the connectors.
10. During priming and operation, observe closely for leakage at joints and
connections within the set, notably the bags. Leakage can cause blood loss,
air embolism or fluid imbalance. If leakage cannot be stopped by tightening the
connections, replace the set.
11.
External blood leakage may not be immediately identified by monitoring
equipment and could result in significant blood loss. Check the blood purification
device and all connections of the disposable tubings during treatment to minimize
the risk of leakage.
12.
Use a 21-gauge or smaller needle to obtain blood/fluid samples or remove
trapped air from the Prismaflex HP-X set. Use of larger needles can cause holes
in the sample sites, resulting in external leak or air intake.
13.
In the case of patients who pose ahigh risk of haemorrhaging or heparin allergy, it
is recommended not to add heparin to the priming solution.
14.
Should acute allergic reactions (first-use syndrome) occur in patients receiving
treatments via the Prismaflex HP-X set do not return blood to the patient,
immediately stop the treatment and administer appropriate intervention. Refer
to the instructions for use of the chosen blood purification device for additional
information.
15.
The set must be changed after 3 days (72 hours). Continued use beyond this
time could result in rupture of the pump segments, with risk of patient injury
or death.
