    INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY Intended Device Use The SIGMA Spectrum and SIGMA Spectrum with Master Drug Library are intended to be used for the controlled administration of intravenous fluids.  These fluids may include pharmaceutical drugs, blood, blood products, antibiotics, nutritional fluids and mixtures of required patient therapy. The intended routes of administration consist of the following clinically acceptable routes: intravenous, arterial, subcutaneous, intrathecal, epidural or irrigation of fluid space. ...
  • Page 8: Conventions

    Operation is Limited to Trained and Tested Operators WARNING: SIGMA Spectrum operation is strictly limited to trained operators whose competency in safe Spectrum operation and in safe IV therapy practices has been tested and proven. Pump owners have sole responsibility for operator training and testing even when SIGMA personnel assist in training processes.
  • Page 9 SIGMA Manual Number 41018 Revision AR WARNING: Prevent Inaccuracy The following can cause flow rate inaccuracies and must be avoided: Incompatible brand IV sets and compatible brand IV sets with unusually large or small diameters or unusually stiff materials. Operating temperatures outside of 60-90°F for Standard Battery and 60-80°F for Wireless Battery Module.
  • Page 10 SIGMA Manual Number 41018 Revision AR WARNING: Do Not Allow Uncontrolled Gravity Flow To open the pump door, the IV set’s slide clamp must first be closed (thus providing “set-based anti-free flow” protection). Do not open the slide clamp when the door is open or during and after IV set unloading. This can cause dangerous, uncontrolled free flow to occur.
  • Page 11 CAUTION: Confirm Audio Operation When pressing the ON key and all other keys, confirm that an audio beep is heard. If sound cannot be heard, discontinue use of the pump and return to SIGMA for service. Confirm Display Operation CAUTION: Regularly observe the pump’s display.
  • Page 12 SIGMA Manual Number 41018 Revision AR CAUTION: Accuracy Refer to trumpet curves for flow rate accuracy as a function of short infusion durations. The upstream occlusion detector may not detect partially occluded tubing. Always check to ensure the IV set’s clamp is not closed above the Spectrum pump.
