Administration Sets (Continued)
WARNINGS
• Use only Alaris Pump module/GEMINI
administration sets with the Pump module. The use of any
other set can cause improper instrument operation, resulting
in an inaccurate fluid delivery or other potential hazard. For
a list of compatible sets, refer to the Alaris
Set Compatibility Card and the Alaris
Compatibility Card.
• Use only standard, approved, single-use, disposable syringes
with luer-lock connectors, and administration sets designed
for use on syringe pumps. The use of any other syringe or
administration set can cause improper instrument operation,
resulting in an inaccurate fluid delivery or pressure sensing,
or other potential hazards.
• Before loading or unloading the syringe, always turn off
fluid flow to the patient, using the tubing clamp or stopcock.
Uncontrolled fluid flow can occur when the administration
set is not clamped or turned off, and can cause serious
injury or death.
• When the pressure sensing disc is not being used and
an occlusion occurs, there is a risk of infusing pressurized
buildup of infusates upon correction of the occlusion. To
avoid an inadvertent bolus, relieve the pressure before
restarting the infusion.
• Ensure that the displayed syringe manufacturer and
syringe size correctly identifies the installed syringe.
Mismatches can cause an under-infusion or over- infusion to
the patient that could result in serious injury and/or death.
For a list of compatible syringes, refer to Compatible
Syringes (Syringe Module) on page 2-136 and the Alaris
Syringe Module Set Compatibility Card.
• Installing a pressure sensing disc after an infusion has
started can result in a bolus to the patient.
