Intended Use
Prepare™ Cartridge is used as a drug reservoir and fluid path for administering intravenous, intra-arterial, subcutaneous, epidural, and subarachnoid drugs to a patient's access site using specified infusion pumps and extension sets. For intravenous, intra-arterial, subcutaneous, epidural and subarachnoid administration Prepare™ Cartridge must be used only with SIMS Deltec CADD®-1, CADD®-Plus, and CADD®-PCA pumps for the infusion of various medicinal solutions. Prepare™ Cartridge is indicated for use in acute and alternate care settings. Alternate care includes, but is not limited to, infusion clinics, nursing homes, and home healthcare.
Device Story
Prepare™ Cartridge serves as a 100ml drug reservoir and fluid path for infusion therapy. It interfaces with SIMS Deltec CADD®-1, CADD®-Plus, and CADD®-PCA pumps to deliver medicinal solutions to a patient's access site. Used in acute and alternate care settings, the device is operated by healthcare providers or patients/caregivers in home settings. It functions as a mechanical accessory to the infusion pump, ensuring a secure pathway for drug delivery. By providing a compatible reservoir, it enables the administration of various intravenous, intra-arterial, subcutaneous, epidural, and subarachnoid medications, facilitating therapy in diverse clinical environments.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance testing compared capacity, delivery accuracy, volume per pump cycle, and pump fit against the predicate. Biocompatibility testing was performed per ISO-10993-1, confirming the device is non-irritating, non-cytotoxic, non-toxic, non-hemolytic, and non-sensitizing.
Technological Characteristics
100ml reservoir capacity; fluid path interface for SIMS Deltec CADD® pumps; ethylene oxide gas sterilization; biocompatibility compliant with ISO-10993-1.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring intravenous, intra-arterial, subcutaneous, epidural, or subarachnoid drug administration in acute or alternate care settings (e.g., infusion clinics, nursing homes, home healthcare) using compatible SIMS Deltec CADD® pumps.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.
