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.
The Alaris Pump and Syringe Modules are intended for facilities that utilize infusion and/or syringe pumps for the delivery of fluids, medications, blood, and blood products using continuous or intermittent delivery through clinically acceptable routes of administration such as:
Please add the Alaris Pump Module Model 8100 or Alaris Syringe Module Model 8110 to your quote if you would like to add it to your order. Up to 4 pumps, or syringe pump modules can be connected to one PC Unit.
The PCA Module is intended for facilities that utilize syringe pumps for the delivery of medications or fluids. The PCA Module 8120 is indicated for use on adults, pediatrics, and neonates for continuous or intermittent delivery through clinically acceptable routes of administration such as:
Please add the Alaris PCA Module Model 8120 to your quote if you would like to add it to your order. Only one PCA Module can be connected to the Alaris PC Unit 8015 at a time.
The Alaris SpO2 Module 8210 is used for continuous, noninvasive monitoring of functional oxygen saturation of arterial hemoglobin (SpO2) and pulse rate measured by an SpO2 sensor. The SpO2 module and accessories are indicated for use with an adult, pediatric and neonatal patients, and for patients who are well or poorly perfused in hospitals and hospital-type facilities.
Please add the Alaris SpO2 Model 8210 to your quote if you would like to add it to your order. Only 1 Alaris SpO2 8210 module can be attached to the PC Unit 8015 at one time. The Model 8210 is a Nellcor unit.
The EtCO2 8300 Module is a capnograph indicated for continuous, noninvasive monitoring of end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2), fractional inspired carbon dioxide (FiCO2) and respiratory rate (RR). The EtCO2 module and disposables are indicated for use with intubated and non-intubated adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients. It is not intended for direct connection to a ventilator or breathing systems.
Please add the Alaris EtCO2 8300 Module to your quote if you would like to add it to your order. Only 1 EtCO2 Module can be connected to the Alaris system at a time.
In addition to the Auto-ID 8600 Module to the Alaris PC Unit 8015 combines Guardrails Suite MX with dose limit technology and car code technology to provide a new level of medication safety. The Alaris 8600 Auto-ID Module contains an internal bar code image scanner and supports an optional handheld scanner. Scanning a bar-coded clinician ID and/or a car-coded patient identification band automatically verifies the correct patient and associates the CQI event logs with the clinician and/or patient. In addition, using the scanner allows an IV solution to be automatically selected from the Drug Library.
Please add the Alaris Auto-ID Model 8600 to your quote if you would like to add it to your order. Scanned solution containers can be used for Pump, Syringe and PCA infusions. Only 1 Alaris Auto-ID Module can be added to the PCU 8015, but it can be added as a fifth module.
When equipped with Guardrails Suite MX, this system is designed to help prevent programming errors. The device can be customized to meet the needs of any selected hospital, facility, area, or unit. These configurable settings are called a profile. A profile is a unique set of system configuration settings and best-practice guidelines for a specific patient population or patient type and can consist of the following components:
The PC Unit 8015 from Alaris is equipped with a 12 volt, 4000 mAH nicel metal hydride battery. The battery is charging whenever the instrument is plugged into an AC receptacle. The life expectancy of the battery is dependent on the amount of use, the depth of discharge, and the state of the charge that is maintained. Generally, the battery has the longest life if the instrument is plugged in and battery use is infrequent. Whenever possible, leave the power cord connected to an external AC power source while operating the instrument. The battery should be checked at least once every 6 months.
