DEVICE DESCRIPTION

CRONO Five is a new, innovative PCA pump that is very appreciated by health care professionals and patients due to its small size and technical features.
CRONO Five is an ambulatory infusion pump especially suited for controlled drug administration on patients in hospital or undergoing a therapy at home. The pump is suitable for subcutaneous, intra-venous, epidural and intrathecal infusions allowing 4 different administration modalities:
1. Continuous
2. Bolus dose upon request (PCA)
3. Clinician bolus (managed by clinician)
4. Combined (continuous + bolus upon request + clinician bolus)
The pump is provided with key-pad lock-out functions in order to avoid
un-authorized reprogramming of the drug administration protocol. The liquid crystal display (LCD) shows the information which are helpful both for the clinician and the patient like programming, reading of administered drug volumes and control functions of the pump.

TECHNICAL FEATURES

· Priming: Available only at the beginning of an infusion or partial infusion. The maximum deliverable volume is 1.5 ml with 0.5 ml increments
· Flow rate: Programmable from 5 to 5000 µl/h with the following increments:
- from 5 to 1000 µl/h with 5 µl/h increments;
- from 1000 to 5000 µl/h with 10 µl/h increments;
The flow rate can be programmed to 0 ml.
· Bolus dose: Programmable from 0.01 to 2.00 ml with 0.01 ml increments: The bolus dose can be programmed to 0 ml.
· Clinician bolus: Programmable from 0.01 to 2.00 ml with 0.01 ml increments: This function is always locked.
· Minimum time between bolus doses:
Programmable from 5’ to 24 h as follows:
- from 5' to 1h with increments of 5';
- from 1 h to 24 h with increments of 15';
- this function can be deactivated by programming 0.
