Intended use
The Infusomat® Space Volumetric Infusion Pump System includes an external
transportable electronic volumetric infusion pump, dedicated administration
sets, and pump accessories. The system is intended for use on adults, pediatrics,
and neonates for the intermittent or continuous delivery of parenteral and
enteral fluids through clinically accepted routes of administration. These routes
include, but are not limited to intravenous, irrigation/ablation, and enteral. The
system is used for the delivery of medications indicated for infusion therapy
including but not limited to colloids and cristalloids, blood and blood
components, Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN), lipids, and enteral fluids. The
Infusomat® Space Volumetric Infusion Pump System is intended to be used by
trained healthcare professionals in healthcare facilities, home care, outpatient,
and medical transport environments.
Using T I the scope of patients is:
Some parameter sets are using the Lean Body Mass (LBM) to individualize the
parameterization. The LBM calculation may furthermore restrict the scope of
patients as it will not allow T I for obese patients.
Using T I the scope of procedures is:
•Propofol: Anaesthesia and onscious Sedation
•Remifentanil: Anaesthesia
Qualified medical staff should decide how the device should be used based on
its features and specifications. For more details, please read the Instructions for
Use.
Operation
•The initial training of the Infusomat® Space is to be performed by B. Braun
sales personnel or other authorized persons. After each software update, the
user is required to inform himself about the changes to the device and
accessories in the instructions for use.
•Ensure the unit is properly positioned and secured. The pump must be
positioned on a level surface if used in combination with the short stand. Do
not position the pump above the patient.
•Prior to administration, visibly inspect the pump for damage, missing parts or
contamination and check audible and visible alarms during selftest.

PATIENT SAFETY
•Only connect to patient once the line has been correctly inserted and
completley primed. Interrupt connection during line change to prevent
incorrect dose delivery.
•Select infusion line/catheter suitable for use with the intended medical
application.
•Position the infusion line free of kinks.
•Recommended change of disposable every 96 h (or as per national hygiene
regulations).
•Installation in medically used rooms must comply with the appropriate
regulations (e.g. VDE 0100, VDE 0107 or IE -publications). Observe national
specifications and deviations.
•Do not operate the pump in the presence of flammable anaesthetics to
prevent explosion.
•ompare the displayed value with the entered value. Only start the infusion
if the values showing are the same.
•If staff call is used we recommend checking the equipment once after
connecting the pump.
•Protect the device and the power supply against moisture.
•If the pump falls down or is exposed to force, it must be checked by the
service department.
•The displayed data must always be checked by the user prior to making
further medical decisions.
•During mobile use (homecare, patient transport inside and outside the
hospital): Make sure the device is securely fixed and positioned. Positioning
changes and severe shock can lead to minor changes in the delivery
accuracy.
•A supplemental patient monitoring must be carried out if life-saving
medication is performed.
•The air detector cannot detect air diffusing in the following components:
three-way stopcocks, infusion adapters and further lines placed between
pump and patient.
•In case high potent drugs are given be sure to have a second infusion pump
for that drug at hand. The therapy documentation should be suitable to
continue the therapy at the second infusion pump.
•Independant of the soft limits the selected values have to be the medically
correct ones for the given patient.
•In case values relevant for the dose rate calculation are changing always the
flow rate will be updated and the dose rate will be fix.

PATIENT SAFETY
Enteral utrition
The Infusomat Space may be used for entaral nutrition, too. Do not use enteral
fluids for intravenous infusion as this may harm your patient. For this reason
only use disposables dedicated and labelled for enteral nutrition.
Transfusion
The Infusomat Space may be uses for blood transfusion, too. For this therapy
only use disposables dedicated and labelled for transfusion.
Other components
•Use only pressure-proof and compatible disposable items (min. 2 bar/
1500 mm Hg) to avoid influencing performance data - which would result in
impairing patient safety.
•Where several infusion lines are connected on one single vascular access, the
possibility of the lines exerting a mutual influence over each other cannot be
excluded.
•Refer to respective manufacturer’s information for possible incompatibilities
of equipment with respect to drugs.
•Use only compatible combinations of equipment, accessories, working parts
and disposables with luer lock connectors.
•onnected electrical equipment must comply with the relevant IE /EN-
specifications (e.g. IE /EN 60950 for data-processing equipment). The
user/operator is responsible for the system configuration if additional
equipment is connected. The international standard IE /EN 60601-1-1 has to
be taken into account.
Safety Standards
Infusomat® Space satisfies all safety standards for medical electrical devices in
compliance with IE /EN 60601-1 and IE /EN 60601-2-24.
•The EM -limits (electro-magnetic compatibility) according to
IE /EN 60601-1-2 and IE /EN 60601-2-24 are maintained. If the equipment
is operated in the vicinity of other equipment which may cause high levels of
interference (e.g. HF surgical equipment, nuclear spin tomography units,
mobile telephones etc.) maintain the recommended protective distances from
these devices.
•The Infusomat® Space fulfils the applicable requirements of EN 13718 to be
used in the air, on the water and in difficult terrain. During transport the
Infusomat® Space needs to be fixed on a suitable restraint system by means
of SpaceStation or Pole lamp SP. When stored under temperature conditions
beyond the defined operating conditions the Infusomat® Space needs to
remain under room temperature at least one hour before usage.

•As there is no dedicated norm existing for enteral feeding pumps the safety
features of Infusomat Space are also for enteral nutrition according to the
a.m. norms.
Safety instructions for using PCA
•In case the demand button is used with SpaceStation the P A pump has to
be placed in the lowest slot of the lowest SpaceStation.
•Access to the pump settings can be prohibited by DataLock 3. The code for
DataLock level 3 should differ from the one for levels 1 and 2 in case the
pump is only allowed to be used by pain management professionals.
•When ending P A and starting it again the therapy data are set to default
values.
•Using the demand button also the patient is a permitted user. With the
demand button only a P A-bolus can be requested. This is limited to pre-
defined doses by drug list and pump settings.
Safety instructions for using TCI
•T I should only be performed by experienced anaesthetists being familiar
with the principles of T I and properly trained in using the present device.
•The use of T I with B. Braun Space does not limit the responsibility of the
anaesthetist for administration of drugs. They need to be fully aware of the
available literature for any parameter set used in association with a drug and
need to refer to the prescribed information for rate and dosing limits.
•Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions among anaesthetic
drugs are known, but are not taken into account into the calculation of the
plasma and effect site concentrations. They have to be taken into account by
the user.
•In particular, the user must be aware that starting the T I will result in the
automatic infusion of a pre-calculated bolus dose followed by an infusion to
achieve the selected target concentration.
•It is essential that the user verifies that the patient characteristics and the
selected target concentration as well as the resulting dosages conform to the
prescribing information of the relevant country.
•B. Braun has verified the accuracy of the mathematical model
implementation, the usability as well as pump delivery accuracy.
•While using T I an appropriate patient monitoring is mandatory.
•Take care of using the right dilution/concentration of the drug and make sure
the right dilution is selected at the pump.
•Never administer Propofol or Remifentanil by a second infusion as long as
you use T I.
PATIENT SAFETY

you must first enter a VTBI which is smaller than the container filling and confirm
it with k.
Note: At rates smaller 1 ml/h the detection of a closed roller clamp cannot always be
ensured due to physical reasons. Therefore it is recommended especially at small rates
to use a drop sensor.
Adjusting the delivey rate:
•In the Main Menu, open the rate with land set it with q.
•Press sfto start the infusion. Running arrows on the display and the green
LED indicate that the pump is infusing.
Note: The running infusion can be cancelled at any time by pressing sf. The
pump can be turned off at any time by pressing o for 3 sec (Exception: Data
lock level 2) and as long a disposable is inserted.
1.2 Entry With Different Combinations of Rate, VTBI
(= Volume To Be Infused) and Time
The Infusomat® Space offers the possibility to enter a volume- and time limit in
addition to an infusion rate. When two of these parameters are entered, the third is
calculated by the pump. If a volume and/or time is preselected, an arrow symbol is
placed in front of one of these parameters in the Main Menu. It is called the “target”.
During the infusion of the pump, this target symbol is displayed next to the moving
arrows in the run display (this symbol is not visible in case T I is used). This indicates
that the pump has been programmed, either with a volume- or time limit. The
assignment of the target symbol, apparent in the Main Menu, shows the established
parameter for the application (VTBI or time). When the rate is changed, the so-called
target parameter is principally not adjusted to the new rate but to the parameter
which does not have the target symbol in front. After the infusion has started, the
remaining VTBI and time are displayed in the Main Menu and the run display (values
are counting down).
1.) Enter VTBI and time: The infusion rate will be calculated and displayed on the
bottom of the display.

The following table shows the dosing units of the gram and unit family and
their conversion used in the pump:
In addition to these dosing units the user can choose:
•Feeding: kcal, mEq, mmol
akg
•Surface related amount units: m2
The pump is calculating the body surface area with the “Dubois” formula
(DuBois D, DuBois EF. A formula. Arch Intern Med 1916; 17: 863):
BSA(m2) = 0.007184 x weight(kg)0.425 x height(cm)0.725
heck plausibility of calculated body surface area value and resulting delivery rate
before starting the infusion, also, if body surface area related dose rate is set by
Barcode. The dose rate calculation enables a calculation of the rate in ml/h based on
the entered dose parameters.
Setting parameters:
1. oncentration as the amount of the active ingredient per volume.
- Amount of the active ingredient
- Volume in ml
2. Where necessary: Patient weight in kg or lbs or m2or grams.
3. Dose prescription:
- time related as the amount of the active ingredient per min, h or 24h.
- time and patient weight related as the amount of the active
ingredient per kg per min, h or 24h or BSA.
4. Where necessary: VTBI in ml.
