Administration Sets (Continued)
WARNINGS
• Use only Pump Module/Gemini Infusion System
administration sets with the Pump Module. The use of
any other set may cause improper instrument operation,
resulting in an inaccurate fluid delivery or other potential
hazard. For a list of compatible sets, reference the Set
Compatibility Card (provided separately).
• Use only standard single-use disposable syringes
(with luer-lock connectors) and administration
sets, designed for use on syringe pumps, with the
Syringe Module. The use of any other syringe or
administration set may cause improper instrument
operation, resulting in an inaccurate fluid delivery or
pressure sensing, or other potential hazards. For a list of
compatible syringes, see "Compatible Syringes". For a list
of compatible sets, reference the Set Compatibility Card
(provided separately).
• 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
may 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 the displayed syringe manufacturer and
syringe size correctly identify the installed syringe.
Mismatches may 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, see
"Compatible Syringes".
• Installing a pressure sensing disc after an infusion
has started can result in a bolus to the patient.
CAUTION
Before operating instrument, verify that administration set is
free from kinks and installed correctly in instrument.
