Carefusion Alaris PC

The CareFusion Alaris 8015 PC Unit is the core of the Alaris System.
It provides a common user interface for programming infusions and monitoring,
which helps to reduce complexity at the point of care.
The display uses color to clearly communicate critical programming, infusion,
monitoring, and hospital-defined policy information.
The wireless network card provides wireless communication capability between
the Alaris System and Alaris Systems Manager.
With the combined use of the Alaris System and Alaris,
Systems Manager is integrated into a facility’s existing network infrastructure.

Supports Guardrails® Suite MX with Guardrails® Point-Of-Care software
and v9 Operating System software.
Alaris PC 8015 POC is the Central module to the Alaris medley system.
This Central ‘brain’ allows other modules to connect to it. It has a color screen,
wireless capable, and is user-friendly.

Wireless connectivity
Powerful analytics
Exceptional versatility
Increased protection for IV safety

Exceptional versatility
A common user interface simplifies IV administration by standardizing pump, syringe and PCA on one platform
Monitoring can be added with the Alaris SpO2 and EtCO2 modules,
allowing the clinician to automatically pause PCA infusions
if patients fall below target respiratory level
The Alaris Auto-ID module offers a unique IV barcoding solution
that attaches directly onto the Alaris System

Increased protection for IV safety
Guardrails Suite MX software is the most comprehensive safety software available
The wirelessly enabled software is available on every device
Provides the right protection for every infusion by double-checking dose
and duration, as well as delivery rate, protecting critical infusions like chemotherapy

Powerful analytics
Guardrails software allows you to convert data into meaningful information,
so you can quickly identify opportunities for clinical and operational improvement
With Guardrails CQI Reporter, you have the tools to spot subtle trends,
measure the effectiveness of your IV formularies and best practices,
and continuously optimize patient care

Battery
Battery run time is a function of the number of modules attached
and module activity. With a new, fully charged battery,
the system operates as follows before a “BATTERY DISCHARGED” message occurs:
6 Hours: with one Pump module infusing at 25 mL/h
6 Hours: with one Pump module infusing at 25 mL/h and one Auto-ID module
3 Hours: with four Pump modules infusing at 25 mL/h
3 Hours: with four Pump modules infusing at 25 mL/h and one Auto-ID module
4.5 Hours: with one active SpO2 module
6 Hours: with one Syringe module or PCA module infusing at 5 mL/h
3 Hours: with four Syringe modules, or one PCA module and three Syringe modules,
infusing at 5 mL/h
4 Hours: with one active EtCO2 module

Communication Data Port
RS-232 with an RJ45 connector

Memory
The System configuration/data set is stored in compact flash memory along
with operating software.
The events and error logs are stored in the onboard flash memory
in the Alaris PC unit and modules.
This is a nonvolatile memory and can be held indefinitely or until replaced
with new data and not lost when power is turned off or the battery is
in a weak/discharged state.
Module-specific parameters are stored for 8 hours when the system is turned off.
After 8 hours of continuous off-time, or if a module is detached,
module specific trend data (if applicable) and module-specific operating parameters
are automatically purged. If a PCA, SpO2 or EtCO2 module is detached
and replaced with another PCA, SpO2, or EtCO2 module,
its module-specific trend data is purged.
Memory will not be lost due to a weak/discharged battery as data is stored
on flash memory as noted.
Compact flash memory: Stores application software, audio wave files, DataSet,
and hex files data for operating system software, all needed to operate
the Alaris PC Unit System.
On-board flash memory: Contains software needed to initially turn
on Alaris 8105 System. Stores boot software application, and events,
errors and battery logs.
