Epic Medical SE0004-120 - Epic SMARTeZ Elastomeric Pump, PUMP INFUSION HOME 120ML 4ML/HR, 12 PER/CS
SMARTeZ Elastomeric Infusion Pump
SMARTeZ Chemotherapy-rated pumps are approved for use with chemotherapy medications, 5-Fluorouracil is commonly infused over a specific infusion duration. Please refer to the table on page 2 for example infusion durations that can be accurately achieved with over or under filling SMARTeZ pumps.
SMARTeZ Features:
Components are not manufactured with natural rubber latex and are DEHP free
- Individually calibrated for accuracy
- Color-coded by flow rate to assist in filling accuracy and reduce the risk of medication errors
- Double cap to protect sterility during filling
- Ideal infusion pump for patients and pharmacy staff:
- Durable, Lightweight & Portable
- No batteries or programming required
- Easy to use and simple to fill design for smoother and faster filling
Automated manufacturing provides a consistent and reliable supply, diversified therapy options and customizable combinations
- Disposable and single use
- Chemotherapy rated pumps are designed for 5-FU infusions:
- Designed with an amber-tinted outer covering
- Flow restrictor element designed to reduce the risk of occlusion from drugs prone to precipitation
The SMARTeZ Pump allows medication to be delivered to the patient by positive pressure applied by the elastomeric membrane. The flow rate is determined by the combination of the flow regulation device (flow restrictor) and positive pressure. This pressure delivers the solution against the back-pressure of catheters and blood pressure in the veins. Back-pressure affects the flow rate.
The Right Choice with SMARTeZ Pumps
Not all pumps are created Equal. SMARTeZ offers unique differences that supports safe and effective infusion for patients. Caregivers find the pump very easy to use. Of course, DEHP and Latex Free is a standard specification.
Extensive Drug Compatibility Studies
Extensive drug studies are conducted with SMARTeZ Pumps. These are documented in American Society of Healthcare Professionals (ASHP) Manual of Extended Parenteral 6th Ed. 2017. The use of silicone material as the drug reservoir facilitates compatibility with a broader range of drugs.
USFDA Extractables And Leachables Clearance
The SMARTeZ Pump obtained USFDA clearance in 2015 (K151650). All pumps cleared after 2014 are required to comply to Extractables and Leachables Testing in accordance to FDA Guidance Infusion Pumps Total Product Life Cycle dated Dec 2014. Chemical characterization performed in Extractables and Leachables tests ensures that the SMARTeZ is safe from health risks associated with exposure to chemical elements released from the materials used.
Accurate Flow Rate
SMARTeZ Pumps are calibrated to ensure that the pressure generated in a filled pump delivers the intended flow rate.
Phthalate Free
None of the system components are made using natural rubber latex. Furthermore, our proprietary manufacturing process ensures zero contact between natural rubber latex and all of the system components during production.
Two Silicone Membranes
The SMARTeZ Pump has 2 layers of silicone membranes. This improves flow accuracy and reduces residual volume when infusion is complete.
Mobile App Support
Several Mobile Apps are available to improve patient user outcomes in alternate sites and at home - VSCAN and Chemo CS App.
