Introduction

Orchesta™ is the transformative technology which saves labor
costs and reduces dosing error risks in preclinical GLP infusion
studies (toxicology and safety pharmacology). The GLP and Part 11 compatible system is CE-marked and supported by a robust validation portfolio and ongoing service. Orchesta™ comprises:

• control & monitoring software (Windows®)           
• wireless network     
• up to 300 infusion pumps


 

Automated Infusion


Programming

All pump programming for multiple dose groups across the entire 
study duration is performed in less than twenty minutes during study
setup.  Users need not calculate and enter settings directly into each
pump daily.  Flow rates are updated automatically by importing new
weight tables.  Potentially hundreds of thousands of keystroke
entries are avoided thereby reducing labor costs and dosing error
risks.

 

Monitoring

All pumps are displayed real-time on a single PC monitor.  Pump
alarms are displayed on the monitor in red.  Less serious alerts are
displayed in yellow.  Users may monitor all pumps at a glance, or
select individual pumps for detailed status data.



Email & Text Message Alerts

Alarms and alerts are transmitted via SMS text message and email
to all personnel programmed to receive alarm messages.  Remote
alarming reduces the amount of on-site monitoring required by
valuable personnel.  Sophisticated templates allow for specifying
which infusion study staff receive alerts.

 

User ID’s, Documentation & Reporting

Orchesta™ is validated for GLP and Part 11 compatibility.  Unique
user IDs are entered at the PC for all software interventions and on
the pump keypad for all pump interventions. Each event associated
with a pump is automatically documented by the system, thereby
replacing paper documentation with electronic data. Documenta-
tion comprises event description, date, time, and user ID.
Orchesta™ software computes and compiles all infusion study data
into numerous formatted reports.

 

PK/TK Scheduling

Orchesta™ provides a solution for the normally complex and tedious
PK/TK scheduling. Based on user inputs, the software schedules all
samples and automatically adjusts flow rates so that Test Article is
delivered to each animal at the intended time.
