Indications for Use


The Medtronic centrifugal blood pumping system is intended to pump blood through the extracorporeal bypass circuit for extracorporeal support for periods appropriate to cardiopulmonary bypass procedures (up to 6 hours).

Contraindications
The Medtronic centrifugal blood pumping system is contraindicated as a cardiotomy suction device.

Warnings and Precautions


Read all Warnings, Precautions, and Instructions for Use carefully prior to use. Failure to read and follow all instructions, or failure to observe all stated warnings, could cause serious injury or death to the patient. Warnings The Bio-Console Extracorporeal Blood Pumping Console Model 560 is designed to be operated only with the Bio-Pump centrifugal pump. There are no safety or performance data that establish compatibility of any other manufacturers device or components with the Medtronic system. Using the Bio-Pump centrifugal pump beyond the labeled recommendations may result in failure of the centrifugal pump, reduced pumping capacity, leaks, excessive blood trauma, or degradation or corrosion of blood contact materials, which may pass through the blood to the patient. Massive air entry into the pump will cause the pump to deprime and blood flow to stop. As a result, gaseous emboli may be introduced into the patient; gaseous emboli could result in death or severe injury. To prevent this, stop the pump, clamp the arterial line, and remove air prior to resuming circulation. Reprime the centrifugal pump as described in the instructions included with the Bio-Pump centrifugal pump. To prevent backflow of the patients blood when the centrifugal pump outlet tubing is open, establish and maintain a minimum centrifugal pump speed that overcomes line and patient resistance. Not maintaining a positive flow could allow retrograde flow and exsanguinate the patient if the line is not clamped. If for any reason the centrifugal pump has stopped, the arterial line must be clamped, either manually or by use of the AutoClamp system. When working with the sterile fluid pathways of the centrifugal blood pumping system, use sterile technique. The Bio-Pump centrifugal pump and the disposable insert of the Bio-Probe blood flow monitoring system are packaged as sterile products and are designed for single use only. Do not reuse or resterilize as this could result in severe patient injury or death. A handcrank must always be available for emergency use. Instructions for using the handcrank are in Chapter 8. Do not place level sensors below the minimum operating level recommended by the reservoir manufacturer.

Bio-Console 560 Overview Never place fingers inside remote tube clamp closing mechanism. Serious injury may occur if fingers are caught in the remote tube clamp when it closes. Establish pump RPM before unclamping the arterial line. Failure to do so could cause retrograde flow. Proper positioning of the bubble detector is the responsibility of the user. Bubble detectors must be positioned to allow sufficient time for the user to respond to detected bubbles. Never occlude the inlet to the centrifugal pump because negative pressures will be created within that portion of the circuit. To avoid an electrical shock, the Bio-Console must be disconnected from the AC power source during servicing or cleaning. Do not adjust, modify, repair, or touch the internal circuitry. These actions could cause operator injury or cause faulty operation of the Bio-Console or AutoClamp interface module. Precautions Inspect each package and device visually and functionally prior to use. If the equipment appears damaged, consult with a qualified Medtronic service technician. A standby Bio-Console should be available during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. If the Bio-Console must be replaced during a procedure, follow the instructions in Chapter 8. This system must be operated and monitored continuously by a trained and qualified medical professional. The flow display may be inaccurate and/or the User Interface displays may blink when an electrocautery unit is in operation. Before using the Bio-Console, determine that the system is in proper operating condition, as described in this manual. Ensure that the system and its components are used according to accepted medical practice and the manufacturers instructions. To ensure that the system will operate properly, use only Medtronic accessories. Only operate a Bio-Pump centrifugal pump that is primed according to the procedures described in the Bio-Pump manual. Operating the centrifugal pump without being primed may damage the internal seal on the centrifugal pump. Connect the power cord only to an AC power source that is properly inspected and certified for biomedical equipment. Do not expose the Bio-Pump centrifugal pump to chemical agents as they may affect the integrity of this device. Anesthesia solutions such as FORANE are known to degrade polycarbonate plastics. Avoid contact of these solutions with the Bio-Pump centrifugal pump.1 To avoid damage to the equipment, all electrical connections to the Base Unit should be attached before the Bio-Console is turned ON. For United States and Canada users: connect only to a UL/c-UL listed ITE computer or equivalent. For customers outside the United States and Canada: connect only to an ITE computer evaluated to IEC 60950-1 or equivalent. Installing a centrifugal pump with the motor revolving may harm the centrifugal pump. The performance of the safety systems must be verified before each use.

Chapter 1 Tubing must be firmly seated in the bubble detector for it to detect bubbles properly. Loss of air pressure or an air pressure below 379 kPa (55 psi) will cause the AutoClamp to close. Air pressure greater than 689 kPa (100 psi) may damage the internal components of the interface module. Do not immerse the Base Unit or accessories, nor allow water to run into the interior of the Base Unit or accessories. Do not use alcohol or alcohol-based cleaning solutions. Do not spray fluid into electrical connectors or onto the User Interface screen. The batteries may be damaged if they are not recharged after use.

For this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation distance for transmitters in these frequency ranges. 3 Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Bio-Console 560 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Bio-Console 560 should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Bio-Console 560. 4 Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 1 V/m.

On-Pump Operation
Before beginning this section: Complete the procedures described in Chapter 3 and Chapter 4.

Caution: Ensure that a standby Bio-Console and handcrank are available during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. If the Bio-Console must be replaced during a procedure, follow the instructions in Chapter 8. Caution: Determine that the system is in proper operating condition, as described in this manual. Ensure that the system and its components are used according to accepted medical practice and the manufacturer's instructions. To ensure that the system will operate properly, use only Medtronic accessories.

Adjusting Flow Rate


The RPM speed is used to maintain positive flow and pressure to the centrifugal pump outlet side of the perfusion circuit. The blood flow rate is dependent upon pump RPM, circuit resistance and patient vascular resistance. Resistance factors include, but are not limited to: length of tubing and size of the cannula blood temperature and viscosity patient's systemic vascular resistance

Refer to Appendix B for detailed information on the relationship between RPM, resistance and blood flow. To adjust the flow rate: 1. Rotate the RPM knob on the User Interface. 2. Continue rotating until the desired flow rate is achieved. Note: If the knob is not at zero when the Bio-Console is turned on, the centrifugal pump will not spin. To reset the motor controller, turn the knob to 0 RPM for a minimum of one (1) second. 2000 RPM Mechanical Stop The black detent release button on the RPM knob is connected to a mechanical stop that prevents an unintentional RPM reduction below 2000 (Figure 44).

Refer to page 43 in Chapter 4 for instructions on how to set these values and on setting the flow bar graph display scale. If a low or high flow alert is active, a yellow down or up arrow will flash next to the flow monitor value (Figure 40). If the RPM knob is set above zero, the Bio-Console backflow alarm will activate when flow goes below 100 mL/min. If a backflow alarm is active, a red down arrow will flash next to the flow monitor value (Figure 77). For additional information, refer to page 33 in Chapter 4. Note: To configure the optional AutoClamp system to close in response to backflow alarms, refer to Chapter 6. If flow values are flashing, the accuracy of the flow values may be compromised. Additional information will be displayed in the System Status Message Box. Flashing dashes in place of a flow value indicates that the flow transducer has not been connected properly or is malfunctioning. Flashing values indicates that the flow transducer has not been zeroed or that accuracy may have been compromised due to system malfunction or electrical interference. Refer to page 40 in Chapter 4 for instructions on how to zero the flow transducer. Caution: The flow display may be inaccurate and/or the User Interface displays may blink when an electrocautery unit is in operation. Warning: When initiating flow, establish pump RPM before unclamping the arterial line. Failure to do so could cause retrograde flow. Warning: To prevent backflow of the patient's blood when the centrifugal pump outlet tubing is open, establish and maintain a minimum centrifugal pump speed that overcomes line and patient

Stopping Flow: Taking A Patient Off Cardiopulmonary Bypass


When ending bypass or greatly reducing flow, occlude the arterial line before dropping below the minimum flow rate (<100 mL/min). When stopping the flow, the centrifugal pump outlet tubing and the patient venous tubing must be occluded to prevent exsanguination of the patient. Partially occluding the outlet tubing for long periods of time may cause blood damage. When an arterial line is occluded, the centrifugal pump may continue revolving without excess pressure build-up in the circuit. Warning: Never occlude the inlet to the centrifugal pump because negative pressures will be created within that portion of the circuit. To stop flow: 1. Occlude the centrifugal pump outlet tubing. 2. Reduce the RPM to approximately 2000 (to the knob detent position). 3. Press the black detent release button on the knob and turn the RPM knob counterclockwise below zero until it clicks OFF. Warning: If flow to the patient stops, occlude the outlet tubing from the centrifugal pump to prevent retrograde flow. Keep the outlet tubing occluded until flow is ready to be reestablished. Failure to occlude the outlet tubing will cause retrograde flow and may exsanguinate the patient.

Level Sensing System


Overview The level sensing system is used to detect blood and fluid levels in a reservoir. It incorporates a pair of color-coded sensors that are attached to the outside of the reservoir using double-sided adhesive tape. One sensor is designated as the upper level sensor (yellow); the other sensor is designated as the lower level sensor (red). Each level sensor is configured independently. If the fluid in the reservoir level drops below the position of a level sensor, it will trigger a system alert or alarm and optionally may be configured to slow or stop the pump. Note: The level sensing system is designed to be used with a Medtronic hardshell reservoir. The level sensing system consists of the following components:
Operator and Reference Manual English 59

Chapter 6 Level sensor, Model LS100 Level sensor tape, Model LST

Connecting the Level Sensors The level sensors detect the presence of fluid within the diameter of the target symbol on the level sensor. When fluid is detected, the red light on the level sensor is lit. To connect the level sensors: 1. Attach the level sensor cable to the back panel of the Base Unit (Figure 52).

Figure 56. Upper Level Sensor Alert b. Coast If a low fluid level is detected, the pump will temporarily decelerate to the coast set speed until the sensor detects fluid. In addition, an alert or alarm will be generated. For more information on Coast, refer to page 71. Note: Coast will not engage if the pump speed is already less than the coast set speed. c. Stop If a low fluid level is detected, the pump will stop and, in addition, generate an alarm. To restart the pump, the user must turn the RPM knob counterclockwise, past the detent, to 0 RPM for a minimum of one second. Warning: If for any reason the centrifugal pump has stopped, the arterial line must be clamped either manually or by use of the AutoClamp system. Note: When the RPM knob is turned counterclockwise to 0 after a stop event (manual control), the safety system that is overridden is the sensor that is not in its normal operating condition when the RPM knob is at 0. The applicable safety system icon color will indicate its operating condition (Table 1). For example, if the reservoir does not fill up to an OK status level for the upper level sensor, then the upper level sensor alert function will be ignored; and its icon will show gray (disabled) after the RPM knob is turned clockwise from 0. However, a lower level sensor event or a bubble detector event will trigger an alarm if those sensors are in their normal operating condition. Note: Optionally, the clamp may be configured to close when the pump stops. Refer to page 75.

Electrical Power Failure


AC Power Failure If hospital AC power fails, the internal batteries in the Base Unit will immediately provide backup power to the system. Battery backup will last for one half hour to allow for appropriate surgical decision-making. Ensure that the AC power cord is plugged into the back panel of the Base Unit and into the wall outlet, and ensure that the AC power switch on the back panel is turned ON. This will allow the Bio-Console to immediately return to normal electrical operation when AC power is restored. Note: To silence the audible alert, press the AC Power Status button on the Main Screen. Battery Backup Failure In the unlikely event that hospital power and emergency generation power are lost and battery backup fails, the handcrank must be used to maintain extracorporeal blood flow. Refer to Emergency Use of the Handcrank for information on using a handcrank. Battery Life Estimates Under operating conditions of 4 L/min and 400 mm Hg differential pressure, the batteries will function for approximately 1/2 hour. These time durations are based on new, fully-charged batteries. Instructions for ensuring that the batteries have a full charge are described in page 86.

Bio-Console System Failure


If there is a Bio-Console System failure (as opposed to an electrical power failure), the Bio-Pump must be attached to a standby Bio-Console. However, if a standby Bio-Console is not available, a roller pump must be used. Refer to page 94 for information on using a roller pump. Emergency Use of a Standby Bio-Console 1. After clamping the arterial and venous lines, attach a handcrank as described in Figure 82 to maintain blood flow during the transfer to the standby console. 2. Follow the procedures in Chapter 3 and Chapter 4 to configure the standby Bio-Console system. 3. Follow the procedures for the appropriate case settings. After resuming the RPM necessary to overcome the system resistance, unclamp the arterial and venous lines.

Emergency Use of the Handcrank


The Model 150 Handcrank connects to a Model BP-50 or Model BPX-80 Bio-Pump centrifugal blood pump and provides manual power should the AC power or battery power fail. Manual power to the pump is achieved by turning the handle.

Viscosity and Flow Rate
The following charts show the relationship between RPM, pressure, and flow. The flow rates reflect a fluid viscosity of 2.1 mPas. This viscosity is similar to the combination of blood and balanced electrolyte solution, which occurs during a cardiopulmonary bypass procedure. The same viscosity was used for the BPX-80 and BP-50 models of the Bio-Pump centrifugal blood pumps.

Determining the Flow


The following charts are useful if a flow display malfunctions. To determine the flow, plot the RPM and difference in pressure between the inlet and outlet of the centrifugal blood pump on the chart. If pressure is not measured at the outlet of the centrifugal blood pump, add the pressure drop across the devices in the line.

Variable Factors
Many variables affect the length of time a battery will operate. The three main factors are: the RPM at which the centrifugal blood pump is revolving the blood flow through the centrifugal blood pump the age and charge status of the battery

Battery Life Estimates


Under operating conditions of 4 L/min and 400 mm Hg differential pressure, the batteries will function for approximately 1/2 hour. These time durations are based on new, fully-charged batteries. Instructions for ensuring that the batteries have a full charge are described in Chapter 7.

Overview

This section describes the protocol of the Bio-Console 560 (560) RS 232 interface to facilitate the connection of an external computer or data output device. The Bio-Console 560 RS 232 interface has two operating modes and data format protocols that provide support for the legacy Bio-Console 550 (550) in addition to the Bio-Console 560.

Selecting the Appropriate Transmission Mode


The Bio-Console 560 RS 232 interface supports two basic modes to determine the interval between data transmissions, periodic transmission, and on-request transmission. Periodic Transmission During periodic transmission, data are automatically sent at a predefined interval as specified by the Setup Screen or through the DR command rate parameter. Periodic transmission of data is applicable when no custom data output applications are available. With the periodic transmission mode, a standard terminal emulator program (such as HyperTerminal which comes with most PCs) can be used to capture the data that can then be formatted and manipulated using standard PC tools. On-Request Transmission During on-request transmission, data are only sent in response to a DR command. On-request transmission of data is preferred for data output applications because the application can request data when required. This allows the custom application to enable/disable data output and determine the transfer rate.

Selecting the Appropriate Protocol


The RS 232 protocol refers to the specific data transmitted periodically or in response to a DR command. The 550 protocol is a subset of the 560 protocol; therefore the 560 protocol is preferred for most applications. The 550 protocol is provided to support applications where a custom data output application has already been developed and it is undesirable to modify the application for the 560 protocol. For those applications where both the 550 and the 560 Bio-Consoles must be supported, the following options are available: Utilize the 550 protocol on the 560 to support both instruments. Utilize the 560 protocol and modify the data output application to use the ID command to determine the appropriate protocol. This would allow both the 550 and 560 Bio-Consoles to be supported for data output without compromising the transmitted data.

Once the desired protocol has been determined, the protocol may be selected using the Setup Screen or through the DR command format parameter.

Appendix D

RS 232 Commands
This section defines the 560 RS 232 interface commands. Command Syntax An external data output device can request data from the 560 by sending a command string. A command string consists of a series of ASCII characters that comprise the command, parameters (if required), and a checksum value. The command is terminated with an ASCII CR (0x0D) character. Once the command has been received, the 560 will respond with an ASCII string as defined by the specific command or an error as defined under Command Errors. Note: Items enclosed in {} are optional. Items enclosed in <> are mandatory. Items enclosed in (..) may be repeated as required. Commands are defined utilizing the following syntax: <CMD>{(<SEP><DATA>)}<Checksum><CR> where:
<CMD> <SEP> <DATA> <Checksum> ASCII characters used to define a command. Separator, used to separate data fields. The space character (0x20) is used as the separator. Data field, used to provide data required by the command. Used to check validity of data. It is the sum of ASCII values of all the characters in the command excluding the checksum. This total is represented by a 4 digit ASCII hexadecimal number with leading zeros as required. The checksum value must be in upper case characters. Carriage Return (0x0D), used to specify the end of the command string.

<CR>

Command Errors The error response is sent from the Bio-Console to the PC/data output device in response to an invalid message received. The format of this response is: <ER><SEP><Error Code><SEP><Checksum><CR>
ER: Error code Indicates an error response. Code A 2-character value which specifies the error condition detected. The error codes are defined as: 00 Unknown command for processor 01 Wrong number of parameters 02 Parameter out of range 03 Unexpected Error
