PUMP CHARACTERISTICS
The Ross Patrol®Enteral Pump is a microprocessor- (computer-) controlled, rotary
peristaltic pump that provides for accurate, controlled enteral feeding in a safe,
user-friendly system. It has a large, easy-to-read display and simple controls.
The Patrol Pump uses a specially designed feeding set, which includes a bolus-
prevention feature to provide safe, accurate control of enteral feeding.
PRECAUTION: This pump is designed to deliver liquid enteral feeding products
only (standard liquid products, infant formulas, or reconstituted powder products
that have been thoroughly mixed into solution).
The Patrol Pump offers these features:
1. Alarms for free-flow
2. Flow-rate selection from 1 to 300 mL/hr in 1 mL/hr increments
3. Accuracy to ±10% or ±0.5 mL/hr, whichever is greater (refer to
CHECKING PUMP ACCURACY, page 12)
4. Dose setting
5. Volume-fed accumulation
6. 8-hour battery operation at 125 mL/hr, when fully charged
7. Alarms:
■FrEE FLO (free flow)
■no FLO (no flow)
■doSE FEd (dose fed)
■LO bAt (low battery)
■SEL rAtE (invalid rate, select rate)
■SEL run (inactivity, select run)
■E1 to E9 (failed pump self-test)
8. Programmable HOLD timer
9. Lock-out feature
10. System self-check
11. User-friendly operating controls
12. Simple set-up
13. Memory—Automatic retention of the following values until turned off
and disconnected from AC power:
■VOL FED (volume accumulation)

INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Ross Patrol®Pump can be used for adult and pediatric patients
provided the patients can tolerate a feeding range within the pump
operational specifications. Those specifications are:
■ The flow rate range is 1 to 300 mL/hr in 1 mL/hr increments.
■ The flow rate accuracy is ±10%, or ±0.5 mL/hr, whichever is greater.
■ Pumps against 18 psi nominal back pressure before no FLO alarm.
If these specifications are not appropriate for a given patient, the Patrol
Pump should not be used.
PRECAUTIONS
■All enteral pumps have the potential to bolus-feed or overdeliver, which is
an important consideration in feeding volume-sensitive patients. In these
patients, a volume of product no more than four times the hourly feeding
rate should be hung.
NOTE: Do not rely on free-flow alarm as a criterion for use with volume-
sensitive patients.
■NOT FOR IV USE
■Confirm proper placement and function of patient’s enteral feeding tube
(nasogastric, nasojejunal, gastrostomy, etc). Failure to do so may result in
vomiting and/or aspiration. Verify the following before initiating feeding:
1. Only a Ross Patrol Pump Set is being used.
2. Pump set tubing is properly stretched counterclockwise under rotor and blue
connector is secured in the pump.
3. If the feeding set is damaged in any way (eg, broken, cut, torn, parts
separated), replace the set immediately.
4. Flow rate is set at the prescribed mL/hr (DIAL: SET RATE, refer to page 7).
Pump set and container should be replaced as needed, or at least every 24 hours,
to avoid fluid-contamination problems. For single-patient use only.

display shows rate of flow in mL/hr and the
dash on the left side of the display scrolls from
top to bottom when pump is in RUN mode.
NOTE: It is normal for rotor movement to be
intermittent (eg, starts, stops, starts, stops, etc)
while in the RUN mode. This intermittent move-
ment regulates the rate of flow, conserves bat-
tery life and does not affect the accuracy of
the pump. The RUN mode should always
be verified by the top to bottom scrolling
bars on the left side of the display window.
SET DOSE Allows dose to be limited (1 to 9999 mL in
1-mL increments) by pressing the keypad
arrows when the pump is in the SET DOSE
mode. The up arrow increases the dose.
The down arrow decreases the dose.
Completion of this dose triggers the doSE
FEd alarm. Refer to doSE FEd (page 13).
NOTE: Pump will operate without a DOSE
selected (SET DOSE at 0000).
SET RATE Allows flow rate to be set (1 to 300 mL/hr
in 1-mL/hr increments) by pressing the key-
pad arrows when the pump is in the SET
RATE mode. The up arrow increases the
rate. The down arrow decreases the rate.
NOTE: The LOC feature may be activated
by depressing both arrows simultaneously
when the dial is in the SET RATE position.
Repeat procedure to deactivate. The SET
RATE, SET DOSE, and CLEAR VOL values
cannot be changed while the LOC feature
is activated.

DIAL FUNCTION
HOLD Stops pumping action and audio alarms.
HOLD is used when correcting an alarm
condition or whenever pumping action is
temporarily interrupted (such as when con-
necting a new feeding container). If pump
is left on HOLD for more than 5 minutes,
an alarm will sound and the message SEL
run (select RUN) will be displayed.
NOTE: The HOLD timer may be pro-
grammed for a duration of 1-90 minutes (in
1-minute intervals) by depressing the key-
pad arrows either up or down when the
dial is in the HOLD position.

NOTE: The pump will “beep” four times
before clearing the volume to alert users
that the dial has been turned to CLEAR
VOL. The user must turn dial away from
CLEAR VOL (to any other setting) before
the fourth beep to avoid an unintentional
loss of accumulated volume.
VOL FED Stops pumping action. The display will
show the volume delivered. Pump accumu-
lates volume delivered up to 9999 mL
unless the volume is reset to zero by turning
to CLEAR VOL (or the pump is unplugged
while in the OFF/CHARGE mode). Upon
exceeding the maximum volume allowed
on the display, the value turns to zero and a
new accumulation begins. This is not
accompanied by an alarm.

CHECKING PUMP ACCURACY
Fluid head height and viscosity are two variables that can affect flow rate. To
check flow rate, use the following procedure:
Select a new pump set for this test. Be sure to use a graduated cylinder for
volume measurement—not an enteral container or other uncalibrated vessel.
Using Ensure®Complete, Balanced Nutrition®, Osmolite®Isotonic Liquid Nutrition
or tap water, fill the feeding container and set up pump according to instructions.
Suspend bag to side of or behind and 20 inches above pump (see illustration).
With the test pump connected to AC power, start the pump and let it run for 15
minutes. Then run fluid into the graduated cylinder for 30 minutes and compare
to SET RATE on pump:
Amount Expected in Graduated Cylinder
SET RATE @ 30 minutes
76 mL/hr = 34.2 mL to 41.8 mL
150 mL/hr = 67.5 mL to 82.5 mL
If amount in graduated cylinder is incorrect based on SET RATE, try a new pump
set and repeat procedure.

CLEANING
There are no routine calibration or adjustment procedures required with the
Patrol® Pump. All servicing or adjustments should be referred to qualified
technical personnel (refer to Service Manual).
For trouble-free operation, check the pump daily and clean immediately
after spills occur.
While cleaning, pump should be turned off and unplugged. Do
not submerge, autoclave, heat, steam, ETO or radiation sterilize the
pump.
THE PUMP CAN BE CLEANED AS FOLLOWS:
HOUSING
■Do not spray water or cleaning solution into pump.
■Clean outside surface only. Use soft cloth and warm, soapy water.
■For general cleaning, use dishwashing detergent (nonchlorine-based)
or isopropyl alcohol.
■For general disinfecting, use 70% concentration isopropyl alcohol.
■For disinfecting after exposure to AIDS or hepatitis, use 10% concentration of
5.25% sodium hypochlorite (household bleach). This solution may discolor the
pole clamp. After exposure to tuberculosis, use 70% concentration isopropyl
alcohol. These recommendations are not substitutes for official procedures that
may differ among institutions.
DROP DETECTOR
■Clean the drop sensors with a soft brush, soft lint-free cloth or
cotton swab and warm, soapy water. Then rinse the drop sensors with
cotton swab and warm water. Be sure no soapy film or residue is left
on lenses. Dry thoroughly. DO NOT CLEAN WITH ALCOHOL.
ROTOR ASSEMBLY
■Clean the pump with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid damaging the
surface. Be especially careful with the operator’s panel and drop
detector area. If necessary, mild warm, soapy water may be used
sparingly. Avoid the use of all strong solvents or cleaners as these
will damage the pump.
Detach the pump rotor from the pump by loosening the Allen screw.
The pump rotor can then be immersed in mild warm, soapy water or
detergent and rinsed under a faucet. Dry excessive moisture from the
pump rotor before reassembly.
After cleaning, plug the pump into an AC grounded electrical outlet
to maintain battery charge.
