    ; for further information on vPad-IV setup and priming, see Chapter 3 on page 13. 2.2 Test Setup If a Module is ready to run a test, selecting its channel in the app displays the Test Setup menu. Test setup begins with input of a device control number or ID, which will identify the Test Record and Equipment Record that will be created when testing of the device is completed.

  • Page 25: Test Types

    2.5 Manual Testing A vPad-IV channel can be configured to run a test manually. Simply select the test type, switch to manual mode, and start the test. The manual test will continue until it is stopped by the user, at which time the user will be asked to enter the infusion device settings and to choose a PASS or FAIL result for the Test Record.

  • Page 26: Test Monitoring

    When a new test is started, input of a device ID or control number causes the vPad-IV app to search for a corresponding Equipment Record. If an Equipment Record is found, the user is given the option of recalling the equipment information and test setup from the Record.

  • Page 27: Settings And Options

    OPERATORS MANUAL 2.10 Settings and Options The vPad-IV app offers many customizable settings for analyzer operation, user convenience, and organizational needs.

    CAUTION: use only distilled water or clean drinking water with vPad-IV Distilled water is the preferred test fluid for vPad-IV. Bottled drinking water may also be used provided the water is demineralized and is not carbonated. Domestic water (i.e. "tap water") is useable as long as it is clean, transparent and low in mineral content.

  • Page 37 OPERATORS MANUAL The priming screen on the tablet ( Figure 17 ) summarizes the above instructions and provides a video which will show you how to connect the input and output tubing and prime the system. After following the instructions, press the Check Status button to confirm the channel has been properly primed.

  • Page 38: Wetting The Flow Sensor

    Once a vPad-IV Module has been primed and "wetted", it is preferable to leave the instrument filled with water between uses for as long as practical. While full, vPad-IV may be moved from one position to another (e.g. from test bench to storage shelf) provided input tubing sets are connected and Modules remain upright while the analyzer is being relocated.

  • Page 44: Test Configuration

    4.3.2 Linking Channels For testing of infusion devices that contain multiple pumps within a single unit, vPad-IV channels may be optionally linked during test setup. When the linked channels have completed their respective tests, the results from all such channels are combined into a single Test Record which is identified by the device ID.

  • Page 45: Test Configuration Menus

    Before starting the test, equipment information may be optionally entered into one of the linked channels, which will later be saved to the combined Test Record. After the initial setup, each linked channel is then started individually, one after the other, as are the individual pumps which are connected to the vPad-IV channels.

  • Page 46: Automatic Testing

    OPERATORS MANUAL 4.3.3.2 Automatic testing All test types support an automatic mode, where vPad-IV will stop the test and evaluate the results when a user-defined stop condition is reached. While in progress, an automatic test can be stopped manually to obtain a result representative up to that point in time.

  • Page 47: Pressure Zero

    The most accurate zero calibration is obtained when the Module is completely empty of water and its input port is open to the atmosphere when the zero is taken. vPad-IV provides two different methods of obtaining such a zero reference: the channel's zero offset will be updated automatically if the Module is found to be completely empty at app startup, or alternatively, the Module may be drained during setup of an Occlusion Pressure Test and the Zero button pressed with the Module in this state.

  • Page 48: Flow Rate Test Setup

    OPERATORS MANUAL 4.3.4 Flow Rate Test Setup 4.3.4.1 General setup Figure 24 Use the Flow Rate Test to evaluate the ability of an infusion device to deliver a set volume-to-be-infused (VTBI) or dose in milliliters (ml) at a set rate in milliliters per hour (ml/h). An automatic test is preferred when the objective of the test is to evaluate the ability of the device to accurately infuse a Set VTBI or 'dose'.

  • Page 49: Windowed Data Analysis

    Refer to Section 4.5.3 on page 45 for more information on how the test begins after the Start button is pressed.
  • Page 50 The Test Duration of the Flow Rate Test is then made equal to the sum of the required startup delay and the testing time or "observation time". After the Flow Rate Test is completed, vPad-IV will determine the pass/fail result of the test based on the volume and flow measured from T to the end of the test.
  • Page 51 OPERATORS MANUAL Figure 27 Example A manufacturer's annual inspection procedure for an enteral feeding pump requires the device to be tested at a rate of 125 ml/h. According to the manufacturer's procedure, the DUT is run for 15 minutes after which the DUT output is then measured for 30 minutes.

  • Page 52: Piggyback / Kvo Test Setup

    The app will require you to input a minimum VTBI 1 of 0.5 ml and a Rate 2 that is no more than one-fifth of Rate 1. Note vPad-IV does not rely on these test settings to determine when the change of rate occurs between the first and second deliveries.

  • Page 53: Pca Pump Test Setup

    Once the settings are input, run the test with the Start button. With a piggyback or KVO test, always start vPad-IV first, then start the infusion device. Refer to Section 4.5.3 on page 45 for more information on how the test begins after the Start button is pressed.

  • Page 55: Occlusion Pressure Test Setup

    Module will reliably "see" the start and end of a bolus delivery when the infusion is triggered by the Module. Once the settings are input, run the test with the Start button. vPad-IV will begin by outputting a trigger to the PCA device to initiate infusion of the first bolus.

  • Page 56: Autosequence Test

    For best results, the pressure reading should be zeroed before the test is started. Follow the guidance specified in Section 4.3.3.6 on page 31 when zeroing the pressure. If the vPad-IV Module is primed, hydrostatic pressure or vacuum external to the unit may offset the zero calibration. Inaccuracy of the pressure zero can be eliminated by draining the Module and opening the input to the atmosphere while the setup menu for the Occlusion Pressure Test is being viewed.

    IV requires return of the Module(s) to a Datrend Authorized Service Center for repair. Opening the case of a vPad-IV Module for any reason, other than according to the instructions of Section 5.4, will void the warranty and may compromise user safety.

  • Page 92: Routine Cleaning

    These recommendations apply to instruments which remain set up and primed at all times. If vPad-IV spends much of its time dry and in storage, cleaning should be conducted more frequently, ideally when dry Modules are primed for the first time during the initial setup (see Section 3.5.4 on page 20).

  • Page 93: Cleaning Procedure

    Fill a disposable 60 ml syringe with the cleaning solution and connect the syringe to the fluid input of the vPad-Module to be cleaned. Do not use the same syringe you use for vPad-IV priming because the cleaning solution will remove the syringe's lubricant.
