Intended Use
The Model P7000 is intended to be used for intravenous administration of drugs, blood, and blood products. This device is also indicated for epidural applications. The final DFU will contain all necessary precautions and recommendations for safe epidural application.
Device Story
P7000 is a microprocessor-controlled variable pressure syringe pump for critical care. Accepts standard single-use luer-lock syringes (5, 10, 20, 30, 50, 100ml). Operates with dedicated extension sets (including pressure-sensing discs) or non-dedicated standard sets. Used by clinicians in hospital settings for controlled delivery of fluids, drugs, and blood products. Microprocessor manages infusion parameters; pressure sensing provides additional safety/monitoring features. Output allows precise drug/fluid administration, supporting clinical decision-making in critical care environments.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on technological characteristics and design similarities to the predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
Microprocessor-controlled syringe pump. Compatible with 5-100ml luer-lock syringes. Supports dedicated extension sets with pressure-sensing discs and standard non-dedicated sets. Class II device.
Indications for Use
Indicated for intravenous and epidural administration of drugs, blood, and blood products in patients requiring critical care infusion therapy. No specific contraindications identified.
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.
