Intended Use
The AutoFuser family of ambulatory infusion pumps with integrated administration set, either separately or as part of a convenience kit, and its predicate devices are indicated for general infusion use. Routes of infusion include intravenous, percutaneous, subcutaneous, inter-arterial and epidural, and into intra-operative (soft tissue / body cavity) sites. Members of the AutoFuser family and the predicate devices are also intended for patient-controlled infusion using the integrated bolus button. General infusion uses include continuous infusion of a local anesthetic near a nerve for regional anesthesia and pain management for pre-operative, perioperative and postoperative surgery.
Device Story
AutoFuser is a disposable, ambulatory elastomeric infusion pump; utilizes silicone balloon as both fluid reservoir and pressure/energy source; provides continuous fluid delivery via fixed-rate administration set. Family includes standard models and Patient Medication Control Module (PCM) models allowing patient-administered bolus with fixed lockout time. Used in hospital, home, or alternative care sites; operated by clinicians or patients. Flow rate controlled by glass orifice or PVC tubing. Device provides continuous infusion of local anesthetics or general fluids; bolus feature allows patient-controlled pain management. Benefits include ambulatory delivery of medication for regional anesthesia and post-surgical pain management.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on bench testing and comparison of technological characteristics, materials, and intended use to legally marketed predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Elastomeric infusion pump; silicone balloon reservoir/energy source; glass orifice or PVC tubing flow control; integrated administration set. Fluid path materials conform to ISO 10993 Part 1. Disposable, single-patient use. Ambulatory form factor.
Indications for Use
Indicated for general infusion use in patients requiring intravenous, percutaneous, subcutaneous, intra-arterial, epidural, or intra-operative (soft tissue/body cavity) delivery of fluids or medications, including local anesthetics for regional anesthesia and pain management (pre-operative, perioperative, postoperative). Includes patient-controlled bolus delivery.
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.

#### DESCRIPTION OF THE AUTOFUSER PRODUCT 1.0
- The AutoFuser pump (Continuous type Silicone Balloon) 1.1
- 1.1.1 The pump provides continuous fluid delivery with attached, fixed rate administration set.
- The pumps are supplied as fixed flow rates. 1.1.2
- 1.1.3 A silicone balloon is used as both the fluid reservoir of the device and the pressure (energy) source.
- The AutoFuser pump family includes models of the standard 1.2 AutoFuser with the addition of a Patient Medication Control Module (PCM)
- Patient Medication Control Module allows the patient to 1.2.1 administer a bolus of fixed volume with a fixed lockout (re-fill) time.
- 1.2.2 The pump is a disposable device intended for single patient use.
- 1.2.3 The pump is suitable for use as an ambulatory device and is intended for use in the hospital, home environment or alternative care sites.
- 1.2.4 The AutoFuser and the AutoFuser PCM pumps are substantially similar to the I-Flow Homepump (Eclipse) C-Series (included in the I-Flow PainBuster kit and the On-Q pain management kit), the Baxter Infuser and Intermate, the McKinley Accufuser, and the B Braun spring pump (used in the Sgarlato pain kit).
### THE AUTOFUSER/AUTOFUSER PCM PUMP AND ITS PREDICATE 2.0 DEVICES ARE INTENDED:
- For general infusion use. Routes of infusion include intravenous, 2.1 percutaneous, subcutaneous, intra-arterial and epidural and into the intra-operative (soft tissue / body cavity) site.
- 2.2 General infusion use Includes pain management for pre-operative, perioperative and postoperative surgery.
- The predicate pumps (and the pumps included with the I-2.2.1 Flow PainBuster and ON-Q Infusion Kit and the Sgarlato Pain Control Infusion Pump (PCIP)) have the same intended use as the device under review:
