DESCRIPTION OF THE PUMP

MAN 01/06/USA/p CRONO FIVE 11.10

CRONO Five is a new , innovative PCA pump that is very appreciated by

health care professionals and patients due to its small size and technical

features.

CRONO Five is an ambulatory infusion pump especially suited for control -

led drug administration on patients in hospital or undergoing a therapy at

home.

The pump is suitable for subcutaneous, intravenous and epidural infusions

allowing 4 different administration modalities:

1. Continuous

2. Bolus dose upon request (PCA)

3. Clinician bolus (managed by clinician)

4. Combined (continuous + bolus upon request + clinician bolus)

The chart below explains the different combined methods of administration.

The pump is provided with key-pad lock-out functions in order to avoid un-

authorized reprogramming of the drug administration protocol.

The liquid crystal display (LCD) shows the information which are helpful both

for the clinician and the patient like programming, reading of administered

drug volumes and control functions of the pump.
