What to do if CME Water Pump stopped before emptying syringe?
If the CME Water Pump stops before emptying the syringe, it might be due to an exhausted battery. In this case, fit a new battery, turn the pump on, confirm the syringe size and brand, and select resume to continue the infusion. Alternatively, the infusion set may be blocked or trapped, so clear the occlusion.
Why is CME Water Pump infusion too fast or slow?
If the infusion is going too quickly or has ended early, or if it's going too slowly with volume remaining in the syringe at the end of the infusion, it could be due to an incorrect rate setting. Check the displayed rate against the prescription and change it if necessary. Another cause might be that the wrong syringe brand was confirmed during setup. Re-train the user to prevent this from happening again. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the pump may be faulty or incorrectly calibrated, requiring service or calibration.
How to fix a CME Water Pump that won't start?
If the CME Water Pump won't start, first check if a battery is present and fit one if missing. If there is a battery, ensure it's aligned correctly. If the battery is depleted or very low, replace it with a new one. If none of these steps work, the pump may be faulty and require service.

The NIKI T34 Syringe Pump is a small, lightweight, robust, and battery-powered ambulatory syringe pump designed for the precise delivery of medications or fluids from 2ml to 50ml syringes. It supports continuous or intermittent infusions at controlled rates, making it suitable for hospital, alternate site, and homecare settings for both adults and pediatric patients. The pump's actuator drives the syringe plunger forward at a controlled rate, adjustable from 0.1 to 1000 ml/h. Increments are 0.1 ml/h up to 100 ml/h and 1 ml/h up to 1000 ml/h.
The NIKI T34 is intended for the infusion of medications or fluids requiring precisely controlled rates through various clinically acceptable routes, including intravenous, subcutaneous, percutaneous, intra-arterial, epidural, enteral, in close proximity to nerves, and into an intraoperative site. It is used for maintenance medications, analgesics, PCA therapy, parenteral and enteral nutrition fluids, chemotherapeutic agents, and general fluid therapy.
The pump features a 3-point syringe detection system that identifies commonly used syringe brands (or programmed ones), minimizing programming errors and ensuring accurate calculations. This system also triggers an alarm if the syringe is removed or partially displaced during infusion.
The NIKI T34 is not suitable for:
The T34 incorporates several lockout features to prevent unintended programming and key presses:
Healthcare providers are responsible for assessing patient suitability, providing comprehensive training on pump use and care, handling alarms and minor troubleshooting, and offering contact numbers for support. Training should cover keypad functions, starting/stopping infusions, and adapting pump use for daily activities like bathing and sleeping. A patient guide is provided for this purpose.
