The system is Read Instructions intended for use on adults, pediatrics, and neonates for the intermittent or confor Use prior to use. tinuous delivery of parenteral and enteral fluids through clinically accepted The infusion device routes of administration. These routes include, but are not limited to intrashould only be venous, intra-arterial, subcutaneous, epidural, and enteral. The system is used used by specially for the delivery of medications indicated for infusion therapy including but not trained staff. limited to drugs like anesthetics, sedatives, analgesics, catecholamines, anticoagulants etc.; blood and blood components; Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN); lipids, and enteral fluids. The Perfusor® Space Infusion Syringe Pump System is intended to be used by trained healthcare professionals in healthcare facilities, home care, outpatient, and medical transport environments. Using TCI the scope of patients is: Weight [kg] Height [cm] Age [Yrs]

Minimum 30 130 16

Maximum 200 220 100

Some parameter sets are using the Lean Body Mass (LBM) to individualize the parameterization. The LBM calculation may furthermore restrict the scope of patients as it will not allow TCI for obese patients. Using TCI the scope of procedures is: • Propofol: Anaesthesia and Conscious Sedation • Remifentanil: Anaesthesia The medical specialist must decide on suitability for application on the basis of the warranted properties and the technical data. For further details please refer to the Instructions for Use. Operation • The initial training of the Perfusor® Space is to be performed by B. Braun sales personnel or other authorized persons. After each software update, the user is required to inform himself of the changes to the device and accessories by referring to the Instructions for Use. • Ensure the unit is properly positioned and secured. Do not position pump unit above patient or in a position where a patient could come to harm, should the pump fall.

6

• Prior to administration, visibly inspect the pump and the accessories (especially the axial fixation) for damage, missing parts or contamination and check audible and visible alarms during selftest.

PATIENT SAFETY

• Only connect to patient once the syringe has been inserted correctly and there is proper fixation of the syringe pressure plate by the claws of the drive head. Interrupt connection during syringe change to prevent incorrect dose delivery. • Select syringe/catheter suitable for use with the intended medical application. • Position the infusion line free of kinks. • Recommended change of disposable each 24 h (or as per national hygiene regulations). • Installation in medically used rooms must comply with the appropriate regulations (e.g. VDE 0100, VDE 0107 or IEC-publications). Observe national specifications and deviations. • Do not operate the pump in the presence of flammable anaesthetics to prevent explosion. • Compare the displayed value with the entered value. Start infusion only if the values are corresponding. • If staff call is used we recommend checking the equipment once after connecting the pump. • Protect the device and the power supply against moisture. • Do not carry the pump device by it's drive mechanism during transportation. • If the pump device falls or is exposed to force it needs to be examined by the service department. • The displayed data must always be checked by the user prior to making further medical decisions. • During mobile use (homecare, patient transport inside and outside the hospital): Make sure the device is securely fixed and positioned. Positioning changes and severe shock can lead to minor changes in the delivery accuracy and/or unintentional bolus administration. • A supplemental patient monitoring must be carried out if life-saving medication is performed. • Avoid applying external force on the drive mechanism during administration. • In case high potent drugs are given be sure to have a second infusion pump for that drug at hand. The therapy documentation should be suitable to continue the therapy at the second infusion pump. • Independant of the soft limits the selected values have to be the medically correct ones for the given patient. • In case values relevant for the dose rate calculation (e.g. body weight) are changing always the flow rate will be updated and the dose rate will be fix. • Consider startup characteristics before using low infusion rates (0.1ml/h) with critical drugs. 7

PATIENT SAFETY

Enteral Nutrition The Perfusor® Space may be used for enteral nutrition. Do not use enteral fluids for intravenous infusion as this may harm your patient. For this reason only use disposables dedicated and labeled for enteral nutrition. Other components • Only use pressure resistant tubes (min. 2 bar/1500 mmHg). • Where several infusion lines are connected on one single vascular access, the possibility of the lines exerting a mutual influence over each other cannot be excluded. • Refer to the according manufacturer’s information for possible incompatibilities of equipment with respect to drugs. • Use only compatible combinations of equipment, accessories, working parts and disposables with luer lock connectors. • The use of incompatible disposables may influence the technical specifications of the device. • Connected electrical equipment must comply with the relevant IEC/ENspecifications (e.g. IEC/EN 60950 for data-processing equipment). The user/operator is responsible for the system configuration if additional equipment is connected. The international standard IEC/EN 60601-1-1 has to be taken into account. Safety Standards Perfusor® Space satisfies all safety standards for medical electrical devices in compliance with IEC/EN 60601-1 and IEC/EN 60601-2-24. • The EMC-limits (electro-magnetic compatibility) according to IEC/EN 60601-1-2 and IEC/EN 60601-2-24 are maintained. If the equipment is operated in the vicinity of other equipment which may cause high levels of interference (e.g. HF surgical equipment, nuclear spin tomography units, mobile telephones etc.) maintain the recommended protective distances from these devices. • The Perfusor® Space fulfils the applicable requirements of EN 13718 to be used in the air, on the water and in difficult terrain. During transport the Perfusor® Space needs to be fixed on a suitable restraint system by means of SpaceStation or Pole Clamp SP. When stored under temperature conditions beyond the defined operating conditions the Perfusor® Space needs to remain under room temperature at least one hour before usage. Safety Instructions for using PCA • In case the demand button is used with SpaceStation the PCA pump has to be placed in the lowest slot of the lowest SpaceStation. 8

PATIENT SAFETY

• Access to the pump settings can be prohibited by DataLock 3. The code for DataLock level 3 should differ from the one for levels 1 and 2 in case the pump is only allowed to be used by pain management professionals. • For additional safety the removal of the syringe can be prevented by the use of the Syringe Anti Removal Cap (see accessories) and the locking of the syringe holder. The Syringe Anti Removal Cap is usable for the following syringes: B. Braun Original Perfusor Syringe 50 ml, B. Braun Omnifix 50 ml, BD Plastipak 50/60 ml and Tyco Monoject 50 ml. The locking of the syringe holder is under the pump and is locked by a clockwise turn of 90°. Make sure the syringe holder is safely locked. Opening of the syringe holder may not be possible after locking. • In case opioids are administered and the Syringe Anti Removal Cap is not in use and the syringe holder is not locked the therapy only should be performed under surveillance of medical staff. This especially is necessary in case non-authorised access to the drug can be anticipated. • When ending PCA and starting it again the therapy data are set to default values. • Using the demand button also the patient is a permitted user. With the demand button only a PCA-bolus can be requested. This is limited to predefined doses by drug list and pump settings. • Consider startup characteristics before using low infusion rates (0.1ml/h) with critical drugs. Safety instructions for using TCI • TCI should only be performed by experienced anaesthetists being familiar with the principles of TCI and properly trained in using the present device. • The use of TCI with B. Braun Space does not limit the responsibility of the anaesthetist for administration of drugs. They need to be fully aware of the available literature for any parameter set used in association with a drug and need to refer to the prescribed information for rate and dosing limits. • Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions among anaesthetic drugs are known, but are not taken into account into the calculation of the plasma and effect site concentrations. They have to be taken into account by the user. • In particular, the user must be aware that starting the TCI will result in the automatic infusion of a pre-calculated bolus dose followed by an infusion to achieve the selected target concentration. • It is essential that the user verifies that the patient characteristics and the selected target concentration as well as the resulting dosages conform to the prescribing information of the relevant country. • B. Braun has verified the accuracy of the mathematical model implementation, the usability as well as pump delivery accuracy. 9

PATIENT SAFETY

• While using TCI an appropriate patient monitoring is mandatory. • Take care of using the right dilution/concentration of the drug and make sure the right dilution is selected at the pump. • Never administer Propofol or Remifentanil by a second infusion as long as you use TCI. • It is possible to completely switch off the TCI mode to avoid the use of TCI accidentally.

Safety Instructions for using Pole Clamp 1. Line pump up with the Pole Clamp guide rails. 2. Slide pump fully into place onto the guide rails. 3. An audible “Click” should heard. 4. Test the pump is secure.

W The pump ist now securely attached to Pole Clamp. • Do not lean on the pump when attached to the Pole Clamp. • Do not position the pump unit above the patient.

OPERATION Chapter 1

OPERATION 1.1 Start of Infusion • Ensure correct installation of the pump device. If the pump is connected to mains, the display states information such as the battery status, the mains connection symbol and the last therapy. • Press o to switch on unit. Note the automatic selfcheck: “Selftest active” and the software version are displayed, two audible tones sound and all three LEDs (yellow, green/red and blue) flash once. Information on power supply (battery or mains connection), the set pressure level and the syringe (if syringe already inserted) are displayed. Hence the drive moves backwards. The pump offers the possibility to load up to four languages into the pump (depending on the number of the language specific characters), among which the user can choose during the operation of the pump. During the first ever start-up of the device, the user is requested to select the languages and to mark them with l. After that, the selection has to be confirmed by choosing the last menu item at the bottom of the list and pressing k. Then the desired language must be selected with t and confirmed with k. Answer the following question with d in order to activate the selected language. • Press c to start with direct entry of therapy parameters or open pump cover and syringe holder to start with syringe insertion. • Insert syringe with wings of the syringe upright in the slot to the right of the housing. Close syringe holder and pump door. Piston brake moves forward. Caution: Never leave the pump unattended during syringe loading. • Confirm syringe type with k. Type of syringe indicated must coincide with syringe inserted. • Drive will advance and grip pressure plate of syringe. Caution: Keep your hands away from advancing device. Note: Make sure that the piston brake moves back into the syringe holder. • If the prime function is activated, press U to prime infusion set at 1200 ml/h (pressing key once = 1 ml). Interrupt prime function with k. Repeat procedure until infusion line is fully primed. Then press d to proceed. • Connect with patient. • Respectively answer questions in Start Up Menu with u and d, until the rate is displayed in the Main Menu. Enter infusion rate: • Press l and set rate using q. 14

OPERATION Chapter 1 • Press s f to commence infusion. Running arrows on display and green LED above display indicate pump is infusing. Note: Stop the infusion at any time by pressing s f. The pump can be turned off at any time by pressing o for 3 sec (Exception: Data lock level 2) and as long a disposable is inserted.

1.2 Entry With Different Combinations of Rate, VTBI (= Volume To Be Infused) and Time The Perfusor® Space offers the possibility to enter a volume- and time limit in addition to an infusion rate. When two of these parameters are entered, the third is calculated by the pump. If a volume and/or time is preselected, an arrow symbol is placed in front of one of these parameters in the Main Menu. It is called the “target”. During the infusion of the pump, this target symbol is displayed next to the moving arrows in the run display (this symbol is not visible in case TCI is used). This indicates that the pump has been programmed, either with a volume- or time limit. The assignment of the target symbol, apparent in the Main Menu, shows the established parameter for the application (VTBI or time). When the rate is changed, the so-called target parameter is principally not adjusted to the new rate but to the parameter which does not have the target symbol in front. After the infusion has started, the remaining VTBI and time are displayed in the status menu and the run display (values are counting down). 1.) Enter VTBI and time: The infusion rate will be calculated and displayed on the bottom of the display. Target: Volume • Select VTBI with t and open with l. • Enter VTBI with q and confirm with k. • Select time with t and open with l. • Enter time with q and confirm with k. Check calculated rate on plausibility. Proceed in the same way to calculate 2.) and 3.). 2.) Infusion with volume limit Enter rate and VTBI: The infusion time will be calculated and displayed at the bottom of the display. Target: VTBI 3.) Infusion with time limit Enter rate and time: The infusion volume will be calculated and displayed at the bottom of the display. Target: Time Changing already entered values of VTBI and time (rate, VTBI and time already exist at the point of change): 15

OPERATION Chapter 1 a) Target symbol is placed in front of VTBI: • Change of VTBI => Adjustment of time. Old and new target: VTBI • Change of time => Adjustment of rate. Old and new target: VTBI b) Target symbol is placed in front of time: • Change of time => Adjustment of VTBI. Old and new target: Time • Change of VTBI => Adjustment of time. New target: VTBI Note: Changing VTBI/time is only possible while the pump has been stopped.

1.3 Bolus Application There are three ways to administer a bolus: b. Then press k and hold button. Fluid is 1.) Manual Bolus: Press n administered as long as button is held down.
