Why IRadimed Medical Equipment pump won't turn on?
- D
  Danielle FosterAug 20, 2025
  There are several reasons why the IRadimed Medical Equipment pump might not be turning on: * The unit might not be turned on. To resolve this, press the 1 (On) control key. * There may be no AC power or the battery could be depleted. Plug the power cord into both the pump and an AC power source, or replace the battery pack with a charged one. * The AC power source might have low voltage. Try switching the AC power cord to a power receptacle with sufficient voltage.

What to do if IRadimed Medical Equipment infusion stops?
- A
  andersonrichardAug 22, 2025
  If the infusion stops, it could be due to several reasons: * Air might be present in the Administration Set. Examine the set to locate any air bubbles, disconnect it from the patient, purge the air from the line, re-prime the line, and then resume the infusion. * The Administration Set roller clamp may be closed. Open the roller clamp on the Administration Set. * The Administration Set may be improperly loaded on the pump drive. Open the pump door, remove the set, and reload it following the instructions. * A kinked set could be causing an occlusion alarm. Straighten the set and restart the infusion. * The Patient Access Device could be blocked. Change the Patient Access Device.

- K
  Kayla StewartAug 28, 2025
  If the battery operation of your IRadimed Medical Equipment is too short, consider the following: * The battery might not be properly charged. Plug the pump power cord into an AC power source until the battery is fully charged. * An aged battery might not hold a charge. Plug the pump power cord into an AC power source until the battery is fully charged. If the battery still won't charge, replace the battery pack and charge it again.

Why IRadimed Medical Equipment unit alarms after each infusion start?
- Q
  qhallAug 30, 2025
  The IRadimed Medical Equipment may alarm after each infusion start due to: * The occlusion pressure alarm limit being set too low. Examine the patient infusion site for any source of occlusion or infiltration and readjust the alarm limits. * A Bubble Detected alarm occurred. Examine the Set to locate any air bubble. Disconnect Set from the patient. Purge Air in Line. Re-prime line and resume infusion.

What causes Inlet Occlusion Alarm when using 1057 Syringe IV Set with IRadimed Medical Equipment?
- J
  Jonathan SmithSep 4, 2025
  When using the 1057 Syringe IV Set with your IRadimed Medical Equipment, an Inlet Occlusion Alarm might occur due to: * The 1057 IV set air vent not being open, which prevents normal fluid flow. Open the white cap of the 1057 IV set air vent to allow air flow into the syringe. * The Occlusion Pressure Alarm limit being set too low for the smaller diameter IV tubing. Select a higher Occlusion Pressure Alarm limit to allow normal flow. Alarm limits may need to be set between 8 and 10 PSI, depending on fluid temperature and viscosity.

What causes prematurely stopped infusion with IRadimed Medical Equipment?
- C
  Carolyn FarrellSep 6, 2025
  If the infusion stopped prematurely, it could be due to: * Occlusion overpressure, inlet occlusion, or patient occlusion. Examine the Set to locate the occlusion. Disconnect the Set from the patient to clear the occlusion. Re-prime the line and resume the infusion. * A Bubble Detected alarm occurred. Examine the Set to locate any air bubble. Disconnect the Set from the patient. Purge Air in Line. Re-prime line and resume infusion.
