vervIew Pump Overview Delivery Modes ® The CADD -Solis VIP ambulatory infusion pump system provides measured drug therapy to patients ® in hospital or outpatient settings. The CADD -Solis VIP ambulatory infusion pump is indicated for intravenous, intra-arterial, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal, in close proximity to nerves, into an intraoperative site (soft tissue, body cavity/surgical wound site), epidural space, or subarachnoid space infusion.
vervIew Intermittent Delivery Profile Intermittent delivery allows the infusion of a specific volume of drug/fluid at a regular, programmed interval. Cycle Delayed start (optional) Duration Duration Dose Dose Time Step Delivery Profile Step delivery allows an incremental increase in infusion rate to a specified maximum infusion rate for a specified total infusion volume.

-Solis VIP ambulatory infusion pump. Note: Smiths Medical does not recommend mixing new and used batteries; doing so may affect low battery alarm times. Always select four new batteries when replacing depleted batteries. CAUTION: Inspect the AA batteries for damage or wear to the metal or plastic insulation prior to use, or after the pump has been dropped or hit.

atterIes Collect Separately This product contains electrical and electronic components (including batteries) that may contain materials, which if disposed of with general waste, could be damaging to the environment. In accordance with Directive 2002/96/EC Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, residents of the European Union must follow specific disposal or recycling instructions for this product.
onstructIon Construction The pump housing is made of special, high-impact plastic with an internal metallized coating designed to reduce interference from electromagnetic fields and dissipate electrostatic discharge. It is composed of 3 sections: the base, cover, and battery housing. The pump housing is sealed to ensure that the pump is water resistant.
umPIng PeratIon Pumping Operation Battery Backed RAM The delivery and recordkeeping parameters for the pump are stored in a battery-backed random access memory (RAM). Battery backup is provided by a lithium manganese dioxide rechargeable battery. This battery is designed to provide a minimum of 10 months of backup power to the memory when the pump is turned off.
umPIng PeratIon When the microprocessor commands the mechanism to pump, the camshaft begins to rotate, thus controlling the following pump cycle: 1. The inlet valve closes. 2. In synchrony with the expulsor moving down to compress the tubing, the outlet valve opens, expelling fluid.
AC power. Close the battery door and turn the pump back on. If the error code does not repeat, Smiths Medical Customer Service may suggest continued use of the pump. If the error is persistent, the pump must be returned for service.
CAUTION: CADD® pumps are sealed units. A broken or damaged seal will therefore be considered conclusive evidence that the pump has been misused and/or altered, which voids any and all warranties. All service and repair of CADD® pumps must be performed by Smiths Medical or its authorized agents.
