Indications for Use
The Belmont Rapid Infuser RI-2 is designed to be used in general or alternative care environments to provide warmed blood and fluids to any patients ≥ 10 kg requiring warmed infusion from 2.5 mL/min to 1000 mL/min. - Infusion of crystalloid, colloid, or blood product, including packed red blood cells, as volume replacement for patients suffering from blood loss due to trauma or surgery. - Infusion of warmed fluid to rewarm patients after surgery or for hypothermia. - Infusion of warmed fluid for irrigation in urology procedures. The 3.0L reservoir is an optional accessory for use in adults only.
Device Story
High-speed infusion pump with integrated fluid warming; uses roller-type peristaltic pump and inductively heated stainless steel annular rings. Inputs: user-set flow rates (2.5-1000 mL/min), temperature, and line pressure. System monitors temperature, pressure, and air (ultrasonic detection); features hardware override for computer failure. Outputs: warmed infusate, real-time display of flow rate, volume, temperature, and pressure. Used in hospital/alternative care by clinicians. Battery backup allows transport (warming disabled, pump limited to 50 mL/min). Recirculation mode purges air. Output data informs clinical decisions regarding fluid resuscitation and patient temperature management.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data. Testing included verification of product requirements, IPX water intrusion (IEC 60529), electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), electromagnetic compatibility (IEC 60601-1-2), alarm systems (IEC 60601-1-8), software validation (IEC 62304), and biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1).
Technological Characteristics
Roller-type peristaltic pump; inductively heated stainless steel annular rings; 1440W power consumption. Dimensions: 34x19x31 cm; weight: 12 kg. Connectivity: standalone. Ingress protection: IPX2 (overall), IPX6 (power cord connection). Sterilization: Ethylene Oxide. Software: moderate level of concern.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients ≥ 10 kg requiring warmed infusion (2.5-1000 mL/min) of crystalloid, colloid, or blood products for volume replacement (trauma/surgery), rewarming (post-surgery/hypothermia), or irrigation (urology). Contraindicated for platelets, cryoprecipitates, granulocyte suspensions, unprocessed/non-anti-coagulated blood, drug administration, and adding calcium-containing solutions, dextrose in water, or hypotonic sodium chloride to blood components.
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.

Dear Lida Reed:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

#### Device Description:
The Belmont® Rapid Infuser, RI-2 combines advanced microprocessor technology with an efficient mechanical system to provide a high speed, simple and safe system for rapid infusion of warmed fluids. The Rapid Infuses blood, replacement IV fluids or irrigation fluids warmed to physiologic temperature at user-set rates from 10 to 1000 milliliters per minute (mL/min). Low infusion rates of 2.5 mL/min (150 mL/hr) and 5.0 mL/min (300 mL/hr) are also available to keep the venous line open.
The system monitors temperature, line pressure, and air in the fluid path to ensure safe operation and alarms at all unsafe conditions. A hardware override circuit prevents unsafe operation in case of system computer failure. A touch screen displays flow rate, total fluid infused, temperature of the infusate, line pressure, alarm and status messages and proper procedures to proceed safely after an alarm situation.
A battery backup allows for mobile transport of the patient and system. During battery operation, fluid warming is disabled while pump operation limited to 50mL/min and safety monitoring remain active.
#### Indications for Use:
The Belmont Rapid Infuser RI-2 is designed to be used in general operation in hospital or alternative care environments to provide warmed blood and fluids to any patients ≥ 10 kg requiring warmed infusion from 2.5 mL/min to 1000 mL/min.
- Infusion of crystalloid, colloid, or blood product, including packed red blood cells, as volume replacement for patients suffering from blood loss due to trauma or surgery.
- . Infusion of warmed fluid to rewarm patients after surgery or for hypothermia.
- Infusion of warmed fluid for irrigation in urology procedures. .
The 3.0L reservoir is an optional accessory for use in adults only.
{5}------------------------------------------------
#### Contraindications:
- . The system should not be used to warm platelets, cryoprecipitates, granulocyte suspensions or unprocessed / non-anti-coagulated blood products.
- This system is not intended for drug administration.
- . Calcium containing solutions (ex. Lactated Ringer's solution), dextrose in water, and hypotonic sodium chloride solutions should not be added to blood components.
