Alaris System DFU with 9 Model 8015i
The Alaris PC unit section of this Directions for Use ( DFU )pro ides procedures and information applicable to the Alaris System and the PC Unit. Each of the other major sectionspro ides product-specific procedures and information.
The Alaris
System is a modular system intended for adult,pediatric and neonatal care in todays growing professionalhealthcare en ironment. It consists of the PC Unit, theGuardrails Suite MX, and up to four detachable infusion and/or monitoring modules (channels). The Auto-ID Module can beincluded as a fifth module.
The Alaris System supported by this DFU uses a newgeneration PC Unit (Model 8015 ) which pro ides wirelessconnecti ity right out of the box, and an enhanced display(including color) to clearly communicate critical programming,infusion, monitoring and hospital-defined policy information.Alaris System wireless communication makes it easier than
e er to increase the safety of Iv medication and continuouslyimpro e clinical best practices, regardless of existing wirelessinfrastructure.
The Model 8010 Nurse Call Accessory might not yet bea ailable for use or compatible with the Model 8015 .
Guardrails Suite MX for the Alaris System brings a newle el of medication error pre ention to the point of patientcare. The Guardrails Suite MX features medication dosing,concentration deli ery rate and optional initial programmingguidelines for up to 15 patient-specific care areas, referredto as profiles. Each profile contains a specific Drug Library,
an Iv Fluid library and channel labels, as well as instrumentconfigurations appropriate for the care area. Optional drug- or Iv Fluid-specific Clinical Ad isories pro ide isual messages.Dosing limits for each Guardrails drug entry or rate limitsfor each Iv Fluid entry can be a Hard Limit that cannot beo erridden during infusion programming and/or a Soft Limitthat can be o erridden, based on clinical requirements.
A Data Set is de eloped and appro ed by the facilitys ownmulti-disciplinary team using the Editor Software, the PC -basedauthoring tool. A Data Set is then transferred to the Alaris System by qualified personnel. The appro ed Data Sets are
maintained by the Editor Software for future updates andreference.

Alaris System DFU with 9 Model 8015PC Unit Section
Getting Started 1-1
This section of the DFU pro ides PC Unit (Model 8015) andAlaris System instructions and information. It is used inconjunction with:
PC Unit/Pump Module Technical Ser ice Manual
Product-specific sections of this DFU
System Maintenance software (and its instructions) for Alaris System check-in, maintenance, and wireless configuration
The PC Unit is the core of the Alaris System and pro idesa common user interface for programming infusions andmonitoring, which helps to reduce complexity at the point of care. The display uses color to clearly communicate criticalprogramming, infusion, monitoring and hospital-defined policyinformation.
The wireless network card pro ides wireless communicationcapability between the Alaris System, Alaris Ser er, andMobile Systems Manager. The combined use of the Alaris System and Alaris Ser er:
Reduces number of manual steps needed to programan infusion (by pro iding information obtained fromAlaris Ser er). All data entry and alidation of infusionparameters are performed, according to a physician'sorder, by a trained healthcare professional.
Is integrated into a facilitys existing network infrastructure.
When enabled, the Alaris Ser er allows the exchangeof information between the Alaris Ser er and the Alaris System. The PC Unit can be operated manually or in concertwith the information exchanged with the Alaris Ser er. If communication with the wireless network is interrupted (for example, out of range), the Alaris System can be used, asintended, in the manual mode.
The Mobile Systems Manager does not utilize existing wirelessinfrastructure. It is intended to be used as a not-fully-functionalsubstitution for the full Systems Manager in hospitals/facilitiesthat do not ha e wireless communications installed. It can alsobe used in hospitals/facilities using the full Systems Manager but where wireless co erage is poor.

IUI Connectors
The Alaris System is designed to operate a maximum of four infusion or monitoring modules. Modules added in excessof four are not recognized by the system. The Auto-ID Modulecan be included as a fifth module. A module can be attachedin any position; howe er, when mounted on an Iv pole, it isrecommended that a balanced configuration be maintained.
Application of adhesi e tape or other materials to the sides of the PC Unit and modules can pre ent proper latching.
Position free module at a 45 angle, aligning IUI connectors.

Modules can be attached to either side of the PC Unit or toeither side of another module. The process to attach or detachis the same for either side, whether attaching/detachingto/from a PC Unit or another module.
An indi idual hospital/facility can choose to permanently attachmodules. To remo e permanently attached modules, contactqualified ser ice personnel.

Plug the PC Unit into an AC outlet during storage to ensure afully charged battery. The AC indicator light ( ) is on whenthe PC Unit is plugged in.
st r g
The PC Unit is equipped with a 12 olt, 4000 mAh nickelmetal hydride battery. The battery is charging whene er the instrument is plugged into an AC receptacle. The lifeexpectancy of the battery is dependent on the amount of use, the depth of discharge, and the state of the charge thatis maintained. Generally, the battery has the longest life if the instrument is plugged in and battery use is infrequent.Frequent use of battery power and insufficient battery chargecycles significantly decrease the life of the battery.
The quality of the battery is also a significant factor indetermining battery life and runtime. The battery cannot berepaired and should not be opened. Replace the battery withthe same type, size and oltage rating. Use only CareFusionbatteries and accessories.
Batteries should be charged in a room with a temperaturebetween 50 - 80.6 F (10 - 27 C) to minimize charge time andmaximize battery life.

The PC Unit is shipped with the battery in a dischargedcondition.
Before the PC Unit is released for use, it should be pluggedinto a hospital grade AC outlet and the battery charged for atleast 8 hours. This ensures proper battery operation when theAlaris System is first set up for patient use.
Whene er possible, lea e the power cord connected to anexternal AC power source while operating the instrument.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance 1-49
The battery capacity should be checked at least once e ery6 months. Refer to the Alaris System Technical Ser iceManual for test and replacement procedures.
If the PC Unit is to be stored at temperatures in excess of 86 F (30 C) for one or more months, the battery should be remo edand placed in an en ironment of 50 - 86 F (10 - 30 C).
If the batteries are to be stored for more than 1 year, theyshould be charged at least once per year to pre ent leakageand deterioration in performance due to self-discharge.
When the battery is first being put into use, or has been out of use for one or more months, it will not ha e full capacity due todeacti ation of reactants.
Restore such batteries to original performance by repeatingone or two cycles of fully charging and fully discharging.
Some temporary reduction in capacity might become apparentif the battery is partially discharged repeatedly. Doing oneor two cycles of full discharge and full charge can restore fullperformance.
