## Indications for Use

The Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump is designed for the controlled delivery (continuous, intermittent, and continuous plus intermittent) of analgesic, sedative, and anesthetic solutions through clinically acceptable routes of administration including intravenous, subcutaneous, spinal (or intrathecal), epidural (or subarachnoid), and for regional anesthesia applications. The Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump is appropriate for use in hospital or alternate medical site environments, but it is not intended for use in homecare settings. The Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump is not indicated for use with blood or blood products.

## Device Story

Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump delivers analgesic, sedative, and anesthetic solutions via continuous, intermittent, or continuous-plus-intermittent infusion. Device accepts 60 mL plastic or 50 mL prefilled syringes; includes locking cover and patient-controlled bolus button. Operated by clinicians in hospital or alternate medical sites; not for home use. Microprocessor-controlled system features color touch-screen GUI for programming. Sensors monitor syringe loading and door closure for safety. Device supports wireless communication with infrared printers or Palm OS-compatible computing tools. Powered by 4 D-size alkaline batteries or optional AC rechargeable pack. Output allows clinicians to manage patient pain regimens; provides controlled medication delivery to improve patient comfort.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Microprocessor-controlled syringe infusion pump. Materials: plastic syringes. Energy: 4 D-size alkaline batteries or optional AC rechargeable pack. Interface: color touch-screen GUI. Connectivity: wireless (infrared/Palm OS compatible). Safety features: sensors for syringe loading and door closure.

## Regulatory 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.

### Name/Classification of Device:

Infusion Pump/ Class II, 80MEA - 21 CFR 880.5725

#### Trade Name:

Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump

### Predicate Devices:

PCA II Syringe Infusion Pump Ipump Pain Management System

### Statement of Intended Use:

The Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump is designed for the controlled delivery (continuous, intermittent, and continuous plus intermittent) of analgesic, sedative, and anesthetic solutions through clinically acceptable routes of administration including intravenous, subcutaneous, spinal (or intrathecal), epidural (or subarachnoid), and for regional anesthesia applications.

The Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump is appropriate for use in hospital or alternate medical site environments, but it is not intended for use in homecare settings.

The Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump is not indicated for use with blood or blood products.

#### Device Description:

The Syndeo PCA Syringe Pump consists of a syringe infusion pump with locking cover, and a PCA button for delivery of bolus doses of medication upon request. The pump accommodates 60 mL plastic syringes or 50 mL prefilled syringes. The pump can communicate with wireless accessories such as commercially available infrared printers or computing tools with device communications that are compatible with the Palm Operating System.

The Syndeo pump is capable of continuous, intermittent, or continuous plus intermittent infusion of small volumes of medications, following standard patientrequest PCA regimens. The pump operates on 4 D-size alkaline batteries or the

{1}------------------------------------------------

optional AC rechargeable pack. The pump uses microprocessor electronics for control of all functions. A large, color touch-screen display provides a userfriendly graphic user interface (GUI), and simple programming steps that lead the operator through programming. As an added safety feature, the pump employs a variety of sensors to ensure appropriate syringe loading and door closure prior to allowing initiation of infusion.

# Summary of Technological Characteristics of New Device to Predicate Devices:
