Purpose, Overview and Features of the Product Purpose and Overview The TERUFUSION Syringe Pump Type SS3 OTCI is intended for the infusion of general and local anesthetics, vasodilators, cardiotonics, parenteral feeding, anti-cancer drugs, labor-inducing drugs and blood transfusion at ICU, CCU, NICU, operating rooms or general wards. This equipment is intended to be used to inject a drug solution from a syringe constantly at a preset hourly flow rate. Additionally, this product can be used in the TCI mode, which is equipped with predictive models of the drug action (PK/PD) with three compartments. * PK/PD Theory: To analyze the drug action by pharmacokinetics (PK) and/or pharmacodynamics (PD). Model TE-SS830P

How the pump works in the TCI mode In the TCI (Target Controlled Infusion) mode, the pump calculates and controls the flow rate to achieve and maintain the predetermined (“target”) drug concentration in a patient’s body based on a mathematical model, called a compartment model, which simulates drug absorption, distribution, and clearance (pharmacokinetics) and the drug effect on the site of action (pharmacodynamics) in the human body. This product analyzes the drug action by using the PK/PD models based on a three-compartment model as shown below: Mô hình 3 buồng Thuốc vào

Precautions To ensure safe and correct use of this product, please observe all precautions. Non-compliance with precautions and incorrect use may result in damage or injury. The following are signs used in this manual and their meanings:
Warning
Caution
This label preceding a precaution indicates that there will be a possible risk of death or personal injury if the precaution given is not complied with.
This label preceding a precaution indicates that there will be a possible risk of personal injury or property damage if the precaution given is not complied with.
Use Warnings • After the power is turned on, a syringe that corresponds to the syringe brand name displayed on the LCD should be used. [The flow rate accuracy and alarm function cannot be guaranteed if a wrong syringe is used.] • Since TCI mode operation is based on plasma or effect-site concentration prediction, the user must observe the patient’s condition, assuming there is always the possibility that actual concentration differs from the predicted values. If any abnormality is found in the patient’s condition, immediately take appropriate measures such as manual dose or other options for anesthesia. [Improper TCI infusion with predicted concentration mistaken as actual concentration may result in critical harm to the patient.] • Always check the infusion status (decreasing volume of drug solution), connecting site and puncture site at the start of the infusion. In addition, conduct the same check during infusion on a regular basis, including patient rounds. • When setting a syringe, ensure that the syringe plunger has been firmly set onto the slider hook and that the syringe has been correctly set into the sections including checking that the flange of the syringe has been inserted into the flange holder. The elevation difference between this product and the patient should be Smaller difference kept to a minimum. [Drug solution may not be delivered correctly due to rapid infusion caused by displacement of the syringe plunger from the slider hook, incorrect detection of the syringe size, etc.] • When an occlusion occurs due to tube bend in the infusion line, blocked filter, blood clot inside the needle or other reasons, close the infusion line on the downstream side, and eliminate the cause of the occlusion before starting. [1. The internal pressure of infusion line from the pump to the occluded section in the downstream is high. Simply removing the cause of occlusion will result in “bolus infusion (temporarily excessive infusion of drug solution)” to the patient. 2. The pump will not operate until occlusion is removed.] • Do not apply any pressure to the syringe plunger or slider. [The syringe plunger may be pushed, causing bolus infusion to the patient.] • When removing the syringe installed in this product, the three way stopcock (if used) of the infusion line should be closed before removing it. [It may result in excessive infusion (siphoning free flow by gravity) of drug solution.] • When using at a low flow rate or under a low temperature, monitor the solution delivery carefully to check for any occurrence of occlusion. [The solution delivery may be interrupted for a period due to: 1. The flow rate setting decreases, the time from occlusion occurrence to detection becomes longer. 2. The temperature decreases, it interferes with the movement of the syringe (the sliding resistance of the plunger increases), frequently causing the Occlusion alarm to be issued.] • When using this product in environments with high background noise levels, the alarm sound volume of this product should be adjusted so that alarms can be heard. [Background sound pressure levels higher than the alarm sound volume may drown out an alarm, resulting in health hazard to the patient.] • When using this product with one or more other products, or with a similar device, make sure of the optimum alarm settings for all those devices. [Unintended alarm settings may result in health hazard to the patient.]
19
Precautions
Warnings • When infusing in the TCI mode, the following must be observed: • Do not inject the same drug before starting solution delivery in the TCI mode. • After ending the TCI mode, do not inject to the same patient again in the TCI mode during the period that the drug is assumed to remain in the patient’s body. • Do not inject the same drug from another route during solution delivery in the TCI mode. • Do not use the Purge switch to inject drugs to a patient. Otherwise, the prediction of concentration will be affected since the value is determined based on the calculation of discharge quantity from the syringe in the TCI mode. • Before using the TCI mode, make sure the correct drug name, model, target, and target concentration are displayed. [Incorrect settings of drug name, model, target, and target concentration may cause significant health hazard to the patient.] • Since this product does not have an airtight structure, it should not be used or stored in an active gas environment (including sterilizer gas), nebulizer-sprayed environment, high-humidity environment, etc. It should not be submerged into water. [If the electronic components inside the product are affected, there may be subsequent damage and time degradation which will cause failure of this product.] • The product should not be used or stored in a flammable environment. • The product should not be used for an extracorporeal circuit etc. that may lead to an extreme negative or positive pressure. [Solution delivery may not be carried out correctly or rapid infusion may occur due to displacement of the syringe gasket from the plunger or displacement of the syringe plunger from the slider hook. In addition, solution delivery may not be carried out correctly because of bolus infusion, back-flow, etc.] • This product should not be used in conjunction with gravity infusion. [1. If this product suffers a downstream occlusion lower than the connection with the gravity infusion line, the Occlusion alarm will not operate. 2. If bubbles are entrained in the downstream of the infusion line due to emptied gravity infusion line first, the normal infusion cannot be carried out.] • A syringe other than specified should not be used for this product. [If using a syringe other than those specified, the flow rate accuracy and alarm functions cannot be guaranteed.]
Cautions • Do not turn off the power or end the TCI mode while the TCI mode is in use. [Otherwise, all important information on the current TCI mode, such as the predicted concentration, will be erased.] • When you change any settings, make sure those new settings are effective. [The setting is not applied and the previously set value is restored if no operations are performed during the process for a certain period of time.] • When using a syringe (specified sterile syringe for general use) for this product, ensure that the nominal capacity of the syringe is not exceeded. [If exceeded, the accuracy of flow rate or the alarm function cannot be guaranteed.] • Use the AC power cable included and connect to an earthed AC power source. The AC power cable included should not be used for other equipment. [Using an AC power cable other than the one specified may result in failure of this product. In addition, if used without an earth connection, the electrical safety of this product is not guaranteed.] • Before inserting an intravenous needle or connecting an infusion line with the connecting site, always bleed the air inside the infusion line by pressing the purge switch and ensure that the slider pushes the syringe plunger. [1. This product may cause harm to a patient due to air injection, since it does not have a function to detect air in the infusion line. 2. This product may not be able to deliver solution for a while after started if there is a gap between the syringe plunger and the slider, or between the syringe flange and the flange holder (on the clamp side).] • When using the TCI mode, be sure to select carefully the appropriate model and target for patients based on the patient characteristics (such as age, physical trait, and medical/physical conditions) and the latest clinical findings. [Incorrect settings of model and target may cause significant health hazard to the patient.] • When performing effect-site TCI, it is recommended to set the optimal plasma concentration overshoot before starting. [There may be the cases where excessive overshoot in plasma concentration adversely affects the patient, in particular, elderly patients or patients with high blood pressure.] • Before starting solution delivery, check that the settings for any errors. (e.g. an error in the digit of flow rate etc.) [This product does not have a function to determine the correct values, possibly resulting in excessive infusion or insufficient infusion to a patient.] • If the product is used under conditions that do not meet those specified for the flow rate accuracy described in "Specifications", such as a low flow rate or short dosing time, the solution delivery should be monitored with extra care. [The flow rate accuracy cannot be guaranteed.]
