SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION
CAUTION: US Federal law restricts this device for sale by or on order of a physician. The instructions included in this manual are intended only for the ambulatory drug infusion pump CRONO PCA 50 and are addressed to the pump user. The pump is provided with key-pad lock-out in order to avoid accidental or non authorised variations of the selected parameters.
The information as to lock or unlock the key-pad are exclusively addressed to the physician. When the key-pad is locked any attempt to modify the protected parameters will cause the indication Lo,1 to appear on the screen. WARNINGS
Do not use the Crono PCA 50 without first reading and understanding the complete pump user guide. Improper programming and/or incomplete understanding of the operating functions and of the warnings could result in death or serious injury to the patient. Keep the user guide together with the pump for references. Before using the pump for a specific infusion therapy check the suitability of the device for the use and for the patient considering carefully the following aspects: • the technical specifications of the pump; • the infusion set that will be used; • the eventual use of infusion set with various lines and clamps along the infusion line; • the kind of therapy for which the patient has to undergo; • the psycho-physical and cognitive condition of the patient. The above list given is only an illustration, not exhaustive, concerning the procedural clinical aspect whose responsibility is on the part of the doctor or the medical assistant. 9

SECTION 1
The pump must be used: • under strict medical control, • using proper procedure and suitable measure to the patient that could suffer serious consequences (injury or death) following involuntary misuse and/or device failure with consequently interruption of the drug administration. Do not prime any kind of tubing when connected to a patient, as this could result in over-delivery of medication and air embolism. Eliminate all air bubbles in all lines before starting an infusion to avoid air embolism. Inspect the whole fluid path for kinks or closed clamps or any other obstruction before the infusion is started. Accuracy, time to an occlusion alarm signal and post-occlusion bolus size may deviate from the information in this user guide depending on which type of extension sets, tubing and access devices that are used for the administration of a medication (details are supplied on ANNEX 1, 2 and 3). The improper connection between the syringe piston and the pump pusher can cause a free flow of medication, in other words, medication administered by gravity and not controlled by the pump, (for example when the pump is positioned much higher than the infusion site). Such situation can cause serious injury or death of the patient. If you know or suspect that the pump has been damaged in any way, for example through water or impact, please contact your local Customer Service representative to verify if the pump is operational. Do not use a pump that is damaged. Liquid on the outside of the pump should be wiped off immediately with a soft cloth. Please observe that any liquid penetrating the pump can MAN 01/06/USA/p CRONO PCA 50 04.10

SECTION 1
cause serious damage to the pumps’ electronic circuits.
Epidural drug infusions delivering drugs different from the ones specifically indicated for those kinds of administrations can cause serious lesions or death. CANÈ S.p.A. recommends an annual check up on all Crono PCA 50 pumps with the aim of evaluating the correct function and accuracy. Such check ups must be carried out only by CANÈ S.p.A. or an authorized distributors.

SECTION 2 DESCRIPTION OF THE PUMP
Crono PCA 50 is a new, innovative PCA pump that is very appreciated by health care professionals and patients due to its small size, 50 ml reservoir and convenience to use and operate. Crono PCA 50 is an ambulatory infusion pump especially suited for controlled drug administration on patients in hospital or undergoing a therapy at home. The pump is suitable for subcutaneous, intravenous and epidural infusions allowing 4 different administration modalities: 1. Continuous 2. Bolus dose upon request (PCA) 3. Clinician bolus (managed by clinician) 4. Combined (continuous + bolus upon request + clinician bolus) The chart below explains the different combined methods of administration.

The pump is provided with key-pad lock-out functions in order to avoid unauthorized reprogramming of the drug administration protocol. The liquid crystal display (LCD) shows the information which are helpful both for the clinician and the patient like programming, reading of administered drug volumes and control functions of the pump. 13
