Plum Duo System Operating Manual
Introduction
Introduction Plum Duo™ Precision IV Pump is a large volume infusion pump intended for administration of parenteral and enteral fluids, medications, and whole blood and blood products through the following routes of administration: intravenous, intra-arterial, enteral, epidural, and subcutaneous. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump is intended for use in clinical environments in the hospital and other outpatient healthcare facilities by licensed healthcare professionals. These healthcare professionals are trained in the use of the infusion pump and the administration of therapies consistent with the intended use. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump is intended for adults, pediatric (including infants and children), and neonatal patient populations. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump (also known as Plum Duo Infusion System or Plum Duo infusion pump) can deliver fluids over a broad range of infusion rates and is capable of Concurrent delivery from one or more rigid or flexible fluid containers. Plum Duo is a member of the Plum Device family, featuring an innovative design that automates many aspects of Concurrent and Piggyback infusions. The unique proprietary design of the Plum cassette allows two compatible medications to be simultaneously delivered at independent rates and prevents free flow conditions. As the Plum Duo can accommodate two cassettes, one pump can support up to four lines. The infusion pump does not require a hanger to lower the primary line to deliver a secondary infusion. For Piggyback infusions, the pump draws medication directly from the secondary container and is not dependent on head height. The Flush feature enables the clinician to flush the downstream tubing volume of a Piggyback therapy. The programmed Piggyback Flush volume is delivered from the primary line container at the Piggyback therapy rate after the Piggyback therapy completes. Also, the infusion pump allows the clinician to program Loading Dose and Bolus on the primary or secondary line. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump also enables fluid pathway troubleshooting, such as removing upstream air in line, without disconnecting the patient line. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump has completed fluid delivery performance testing in accordance with test methods defined in AAMI TIR101:2021. Under standard operating conditions, Plum Duo delivers with precision at +/- 3% delivery accuracy for all supported flow rates over the entire period of intended use. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump is fully compatible with Plum™ Series administration sets and accessories, and the Clave™ needleless connection systems, providing a convenient and cost-effective infusion pump. The Plum Duo can act as a standalone infusion pump, or in conjunction as a system with ICU Medical LifeShield™ Infusion Safety Software Suite to provide medication safety software at the point of care, with customized drug libraries to support hospital defined protocols by clinical care area. LifeShield Infusion Safety Software Suite connectivity is optional. For the list of features available with the version of LifeShield Infusion Safety Software Suite installed at your facility, contact your local representative. Plum Duo System Operating Manual

Introduction
Intended Use The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump is intended for administration of parenteral and enteral fluids, medications, and whole blood and blood products through the following routes of administration: intravenous, intra-arterial, enteral*, epidural, and subcutaneous. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump is intended for use in clinical environments in the hospital and other outpatient healthcare facilities by licensed healthcare professionals. These healthcare professionals are trained in the use of the infusion pump and the administration of therapies consistent with the intended use. The Plum Duo Precision IV Pump is intended for adult, pediatric (including infants and children), and neonatal patient populations. * Enteral route of administration has been qualified for the following populations: adult, pediatric (including infants and children) weighing more than 0.5 kg.
Patient Population The Plum Duo Infusion System is intended for adult, pediatric (including infants and children), and neonatal patient populations. Special consideration and attention should be given to those who are medically fragile as described in this section. Medically fragile patient populations may include a range of patients with a combination of factors (age, illness, weight, etc.) that place them at higher risk of harm. These include certain pediatric patients, such as those with low birth weight and those born premature (neonate), who require special attention when infusing at low flow rates. Consider the following when using the Plum Duo infusion pump with medically fragile patients: WARNING: AIR BUBBLES MAY FORM DOWNSTREAM TO THE CASSETTE AS THE RESULT OF NORMAL OUTGASSING OF DISSOLVED AIR IN THE FLUID IN ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING CASES: • CHILLED SOLUTION IS IN USE. • CERTAIN FLUID KNOWN TO ROUTINELY OUTGAS ARE IN USE. • THE INFUSION PUMP IS MOUNTED SIGNIFICANTLY ABOVE THE PATIENT. MINIMIZE THE PUMP HEIGHT ABOVE THE PATIENT WHEN OUTGASSING IS A CONCERN. • THE INFUSION PUMP IS INFUSING AT VERY LOW RATES BETWEEN 0.1 AND 5 mL/hr. TO AVOID THESE AIR BUBBLES POTENTIALLY BEING INFUSED TO THE PATIENT AND THE NEED FOR REPRIMING, USE OF AN AIR ELIMINATING FILTER IS RECOMMENDED WHEN CLINICALLY APPROPRIATE.
• The cassette air trap catches small bubbles. The downstream air sensor detection is configurable for each Clinical Care Area (CCA); it can be set to detect a single air bolus of 50, 100, or 250 mcL and 250 mcL cumulative air within 4.9 mL of fluid delivered. Consider setting downstream air detection to 50 mcL.

Introduction WARNING: BASED ON THE AIR DETECTION LIMIT DEFINED IN THE DRUG LIBRARY, THE USE OF AN AIR ELIMINATING FILTER IS RECOMMENDED WHEN CLINICALLY APPROPRIATE.
• The drug library can support configurations through medication rulesets and Clinical Care Area (CCA) settings that support the needs of various patient profiles. Dosing limits, concentration limits, maximum rate, volume to be infused, downstream occlusion pressure limit, downstream occlusion number of resets, detection of a single airin-line bolus from 50 mcL to 250 mcL, and post infusion settings may be configured to accommodate the needs of various patient profiles and groups. • Consider the criticality of the medication, as well as the appropriate use and limitation of a large volume pump on medically fragile patients. Special consideration is required regarding start up and accuracy needs at the intended flow rates as described in Delivery Accuracy. • When placing the Plum Duo infusion pump on an I.V. pole, consider its position relative to the patient. If the infusion pump is too high above the patient, be aware of its impact on accuracy at flow rates. At flow rates less than 1 mL/hr, the Plum Duo infusion pump should not be positioned higher than 24 inches above the patient. For information on low flow rate, accuracy, and the position of the pump above the patient, see Negative Backpressure (Pump Height) at Low Flow Rates. WARNING: DELIVERY ACCURACY MAY POTENTIALLY BE AFFECTED BY FACTORS SUCH AS FLUID VISCOSITY AND VARIATIONS IN PUMP HEIGHT RELATIVE TO THE PATIENT. FOR INFORMATION ON THOSE INDIVIDUAL AFFECTS, AS WELL AS WORST CASE CLINICALLY RELEVANT COMBINATIONS OF THESE FACTORS, SEE DELIVERY ACCURACY.
• Typical start-up delay time for rates of 0.1 to 999 mL/hr is less than 1 minute for viscosity, temperature, ambient pressure, and filling head height conditions tested. Variation in temperature, ambient pressure (at or above sea level), fluid viscosity (up to a viscosity of D50), and filling head heights do not impact system delivery accuracy. Testing was performed in accordance with test methods and test matrix defined in AAMI TIR101:2021. • If a Bolus or Loading Dose is to be given, see Bolus Delivery Accuracy and Loading Dose Accuracy for volume and factors to consider with a fragile patient group. • See Maximum Unintended Bolus Volume Released After Downstream Occlusion is Resolved to determine the flow rate, downstream occlusion pressure alarm limit setting, and tubing type for the potential unintended volume released. • See Steps to Avoid Unintended Bolus for the procedure to avoid an unintended Bolus that may occur when clearing a Downstream Occlusion alarm. See Maximum Unintended Bolus Volume Released After Downstream Occlusion is Resolved for the typical and maximum unintended Bolus volume. Plum Duo System Operating Manual

Introduction WARNING: CLOSE ALL CLAMPS ON THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY LINES, OR REMOVE THE SECONDARY CONTAINER, BEFORE OPENING THE CASSETTE DOOR TO PREVENT THE MIXTURE OF PRIMARY AND SECONDARY FLUIDS AND TO PREVENT UNRESTRICTED FLOW.
WARNING: A SMALL AMOUNT OF FLUID IS EXPELLED FROM THE SET (LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 0.1 mL) EACH TIME THE DOOR IS OPENED OR CLOSED WITH A SET INSTALLED. IF POTENT DRUGS ARE BEING USED, TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION TO GUARD AGAINST OVER-MEDICATION OF THE PATIENT.
WARNING: THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR AN UNINTENDED BOLUS VOLUME TO BE DELIVERED AFTER AN OCCLUSION IS CLEARED, DEPENDING ON THE FLOW RATE, DOWNSTREAM OCCLUSION PRESSURE LIMIT, DOWNSTREAM TUBING LENGTH, AND TUBING TYPES USED. CONSIDER THESE FACTORS WHILE SETTING UP THE THERAPY TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF UNINTENDED BOLUS.
WARNING: A SMALL AMOUNT OF FLUID MAY BE EXPELLED FROM AN INSERTED CASSETE (LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO 0.2 mL) WHEN THE INFUSION PUMP IS POWERED ON. IF POTENT DRUGS ARE BEING USED, TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION TO GUARD AGAINST OVER-MEDICATION OF THE PATIENT.
WARNING: CLOSE ALL CLAMPS BEFORE OPENING THE CASSETTE DOOR. • Close clamps when connected to a patient while the infusion pump is being powered on, during cassette check, and when stopping lines and opening the cassette door. If clamps are not closed, a volume of 0.2 mL or less may be delivered. WARNING: DELIVERING MEDICATIONS IN CONCURRENT MODE WITH A SHORT HALF-LIFE OF LESS THAN 6 MINUTES PAUSES THE FLOW CONTINUITY OF SHORT HALF-LIFE MEDICATIONS, WHICH MAY IMPACT THE PHYSIOLOGIC RESPONSE.
NOTE: The following guidelines apply only when infusing short half-life critical drugs in Concurrent mode using a single channel. Individual patient responses may vary requiring adjustment of delivery rates. • If a critical drug (with half-life less than 6 minutes) is to be infused at less than 2 mL/hr, the other infusion should be no faster than 5 times the critical drug’s rate. Dopamine, for example, delivered at 1.5 mL/hr should not be accompanied by an infusion programmed any faster than 7.5 mL/hr. • If a critical drug (with half-life less than 6 minutes) is to be infused at 2-5 mL/hr the other infusion should be no faster than ten times the critical drug’s rate. Dopamine, for example, delivered at 3.5 mL/hr should not be accompanied by an infusion programmed any faster than 35 mL/hr. • If a critical drug (with half-life less than 6 minutes) is to be infused at 5.1 mL/hr or greater, the other infusion can be programmed at any desired rate. PRECAUTION: THE MAXIMUM COMBINED RATE OF THE PRIMARY AND SECONDARY LINES ON THE SAME CHANNEL IN CONCURRENT MODE IS 500 mL/hr, THE MINIMUM RATE IS 0.5 mL/hr PER LINE.
