Alarms/Indicators - Medline EntraFloH2O Guide D'utilisation

ALARMS/INDICATORS

When turned on, the EntraFlo H20™ Nutrition Delivery System is designed to provide
audible and visible alarms under several conditions where desired performance cannot
be maintained. Pressing RUN/PAUSE after the alarm condition is identified silences
the alarm and returns the pump to pause mode. Perform the necessary procedures to
correct the alarm condition. Press RUN/PAUSE again to resume normal operation.
no SEt (NO SET)
An audible alarm sounds, and no SEt is
displayed. Indicates one of the following
conditions:
• An EntraFlo H20™ set is not being
used.
• One or both of the delivery set secu-
rity doors are not closed and latched
securely after the RUN/PAUSE
key has been pressed. Immediately
determine if the delivery set has
become dislodged from the pump.
Caution: If feeding is free flowing, take
corrective action immediately. Stop the
feeding flow using the slide clamps on
the delivery set. Monitor patient for
signs and symptoms of feeding/water
over-delivery.
FEEd Err (FEED ERROR)
The pump stops, an audible alarm sounds, and FEEd Err is displayed.
Possible Condition
1. Water or Feeding container is empty
2. An occlusion has caused delivery to stop
3. Drip chamber is overfilled
4. Drip chamber walls are heavily coated
with feeding
5. Drip chamber bracket sensors need
cleaning
6. Drip chamber is improperly placed
LOW BATTERY ILLUMINATED
(LOW BATTERY)
The LOW BATTERY indicator on the dis-
play panel comes on 15 minutes before
the pump ceases operation due to a LOW
BATTERY condition. After 15 minutes,
the indicator flashes, an audible alarm
sounds, and the pump stops operation.
Whenever LOW BATTERY is indicated,
plug the pump into an electrical outlet,
and normal feeding may continue. The
battery recharges anytime the pump is
connected to an AC outlet regardless of
whether the pump is turned on or off.
To avoid degrading battery life, it is
important not to run down the battery.
Corrective Action
1. Refill container or start new delivery
set. Follow instructions to prime the
delivery set, and resume feeding.
2. Identify point of occlusion and correct
3. Insert new administration set (use
automatic priming to avoid "flooding"
of drip chamber)
4. Manipulate chamber to reset drops in
sensor path
5. Clean sensor with cotton swab and
isopropyl alcohol
6. Reposition drip chamber
