Keep Tube Open (Kto); Lock Screen Feature - Coviden Kangaroo ePump Manual De Instrucciones

The RUN option can be selected from the following screens,
if the proper parameters are programmed and the pump set
is loaded:
• SET LOADED screens (Figures 7A-7D)
• ADJUST FEED screen, continuous mode (Figure 11A)
• ADJUST FLUSH screens (Figure 12A, 14A)
• HOLDING screens (Figure 18A)

Keep Tube Open (KTO)

(Not Available in EZMODE)
The Keep Tube Open (KTO) function within the Kangaroo™ ePump™ enteral feed and flush pump will help prevent a blockage of the
feeding set by moving the feeding solution periodically within the tube. On regular intervals, calculated from the pump's presently
programmed feed rate, a small and clinically insignificant portion of feeding solution (0.2mL/interval) is moved through the tube.
The amount of delivered fluid is monitored, tracked, and calculated into the final feed volume totalizer amounts displayed to the
user. The KTO feature can be activated via the RUNNING screen. To activate the KTO feature, press the input button to the left of
the KTO icon, see Figure 15A, to immediately input a desired time in minutes for which the pump will remain in the "Keep Tube
Open" mode before resuming the previously programmed feeding regimen. Each press of the input button will increment the KTO
time by 5-minute increments, up to 30 minutes, see Figure 15B. After "30" is reached, each additional button press will increment
in larger time steps, up to a maximum of 240 minutes. Another button push after 240 will cycle the KTO back to 5 minutes. No
other input is needed to start the countdown, as the time immediately counts down after the incremental value is reached.

Lock Screen Feature

(Not Available in EZMODE)
The Kangaroo™ ePump™ enteral feed and flush pump can be set to RUN and then locked
out from unauthorized use. While the LOCK SETTINGS feature prevents only changes to the
input parameters, the LOCK SCREEN feature will lock out any button presses, including RUN
or HOLD, except power off.
Use LOCK SCREEN when the pump is running and there is a need to prevent tampering such
as putting the pump into an unwanted HOLD. The RUNNING screen will show a padlock to
indicate that no changes can be made without unlocking the screen.
To lock the screen, use the following procedure while the pump is in RUNNING mode:
• Press and hold the third button from the top for at least 3 seconds, and then release it.

To unlock the screen, use the same procedure above.
