WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
The following should be observed to avoid patient/user injury. This Instructions
for Use manual contains detailed instructions and warnings on the use of the
Vista™ basic Infusion Pump. Please read it completely prior to using this device.
This manual is intended to reinforce the teaching given to the user by a trained
health care professional or an authorized B. Braun representative.
WARNINGS
♦
Do not operate this device in
environments where there is an
explosion hazard! A possible
explosion hazard exists if the pump
is used in the presence of

responsibility for incidents which
may occur if the product is not used
in accordance with product labeling.
flammable anesthetics.
♦

♦
Make sure the pump is stable, either
fastened securely to the IV pole or
resting on a flat surface.
♦
The EMC-limits (Electro-magnetic
compatibility) according to IEC/EN
60601-1-2 and IEC/EN 60601-2-24
are maintained. If the equipment is
operated near other equipment
which may cause high levels of
interference (e.g. HF surgical
equipment, nuclear spin tomography
units, mobile telephones, etc.)
maintain the recommended
protective distances for these
devices. Under certain conditions,
malfunctions may occur which lead
to a device alarm with permanent
alarm tone. Interference may occur
e.g. at electro-magnetic fields > 10
[V/m] resp. electro-magnetic
Prior to use, always check the
audible and visual alarms (and staff
call, where applicable).
Connection of pump tubing to the
patient should only be made after
the tubing is loaded and the unit is
turned on. Disconnect tubing from
patient when changing solution
containers to avoid the danger of
incorrect dosage.
♦
♦
Ensure there are no kinks in the
tubing.
Always read and follow the
instructions that accompany the

discharges > [8 kV].
administration sets you are using.
Carefully follow the instructions for
loading, removing, and reloading the
set, as well as the recommended set
change intervals.
♦
Monitoring of the patient and
infusion status is necessary to
ensure the infusion is being
delivered as anticipated. The Vista
basic has been designed to stop
fluid flow to the patient under certain
alarm conditions. Also, prior to
starting an infusion, verify that no
drops are falling in the drip chamber
and the programmed information is
correct.
♦
♦
Change pumping section on tubing
every 24 hours. Do not use tubing
for more than 72 hours or per
current facility protocol.
Always check pump data prior to
starting infusion.

WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
♦
After starting an infusion, make sure
drops are falling in the drip chamber.
If no drops are falling, make sure the
roller clamp is open. If the roller
clamp is open and still no drops are
falling, replace and dispose of the
set.
♦
Use only equipment, accessories,
parts, and disposables that are
intended for use with the Vista
basic.
♦
Do not clean, disinfect, or sterilize
any part of the device by autoclaving
or with ethylene oxide gas. Doing
so may damage the device and void
the warranty. Only external parts of
the pump should be disinfected.
See “Maintenance, Storage, &
Service” for suggested cleaning
solutions.
♦
The air detector cannot recognize
the introduction of air at 3-way
stopcocks, infusion ports, and other
lines/tubes below the pump.
♦
♦
See section entitled “Drop Sensor”
for additional information on using
the device without a drop sensor.
♦
♦
Technical specifications are not
guaranteed with any other tubing
than that approved for use with the
Vista basic.
To avoid mechanical or electronic
damage, do not steam autoclave or
immerse the pump in any fluids or
cleaning solutions. Always
disconnect electrical power cord
from outlet before cleaning to
prevent electrical shock.
Any analog and digital components
connected must demonstrate that
they meet EN specifications (i.e. EN
60950 for data processing
equipment and EN 60601 for
electrical medical equipment).

configuration technician responsible
for meeting the specifications of
standard EN 60601-1-1 may
connect additional devices to the
signal inputs or outputs.
♦
Do not attempt to infuse two fluids
simultaneously using the Vista™
basic.
♦
♦
Variations in pressure, e.g. caused
by change in level of fluid container,
may affect the accuracy of the
device.
SAFETY STANDARD
The Vista basic meets all safety
standards for medical electrical devices,
corresponding to IEC 60601-1 and IEC
60601-2-4.
NOTE: IEC 60601-1 corresponds to
European Standard EN 60601.
If several pieces of infusion
equipment are connected together,
it is possible there may be mutual
influence. Possible incompatibilities
can be found in the instructions for
use for the drug or for the other
appliances.

OPTIONS
Piggyback
The Vista™ basic contains many options to allow custom programming. To
access the various options, press OPTS while the pump is stopped. Pressing
OPTS each time will move you to the next option. Eventually, the OPTS key will
bring you back to the mode from which you began.
Depending on the model, some modes/options may have been disabled and will
not appear on the display when the OPTS key is pressed.
PIGGYBACK
The Piggyback feature allows programming of a secondary (Piggyback) infusion.
The pump automatically switches from the Piggyback to the Continuous Mode
infusion when the Piggyback program is complete. The option is only available if
there is data in the Continuous Mode.
1. Connect the Piggyback set to the injection site on the
tubing above the pump on the primary set. Open the
roller clamp on the Piggyback set.
2. Hang the Piggyback solution container at least 8 inches
above the primary solution container.
3. Program the continuous infusion in the Continuous Mode
(see “Continuous Mode”).
4. Press OPTS.
5. Press ON to turn the Piggyback feature on.
6. Press END. PIGY will now be displayed in the lower left corner.
7. Press PIGY.
8. Enter the Piggyback infusion data as you would Continuous Mode data.
9. Press
to start the Piggyback infusion.
10. Check that drops are falling in the Piggyback drip chamber.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to infuse both Continuous and Piggyback fluids at the same time. Use
primary sets with check valves.
NOTE: To prevent incorrect delivery, the programmed Piggyback volume to be delivered must equal
the amount of fluid in the Piggyback container. Automatic Piggyback is not intended for the infusion
of fluids requiring flushing before and after administration.
NOTE: If the Piggyback container is not empty, the remaining Piggyback fluid will be delivered at the
Continuous Mode rate once the pump transitions back to the Continuous Mode.
