Introduction
The CADD
®
-Solis ambulatory infusion pump
system provides measured drug therapy to patients
in hospital or outpatient settings. Therapy should
always be overseen by a physician or a certified,
licensed healthcare professional. As appropriate, the
patient should be instructed in using the pump.

subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, in close proximity
to nerves, into an intraoperative site (soft tissue,
body cavity/surgical wound site), epidural space, or
subarachnoid space infusion. The pump is intended

infusion, patient-controlled demand doses, or both
(such as patient-controlled analgesia).
Epidural/Subarachnoid
Administration
The selected drug must be used in accordance
with the indications included in the package insert
accompanying the drug. Administration of any
drug by this pump is limited by any warnings,
precautions, or contraindications in the drug
labeling.
Analgesics
Administration of analgesics to the epidural space is
limited to use with indwelling catheters specifically
indicated for either short or long-term drug delivery.
Anesthetics
Administration of anesthetics to the epidural
space is limited to use with indwelling catheters
specifically indicated for short-term drug delivery.
