Introduction
INTRODUCTION
The Baxter ExactaMix® 2400 Compounder is an automated pumping system that compounds
multiple sterile ingredients into a finished solution in a single patient bag. Using a formula
provided electronically or entered manually, the compounder withdraws a specified volume of
each ingredient from its source container in a specified sequence, and pumps each ingredient
into a patient bag. The finished solution is delivered to patients intravenously.
You can use the compounder to compound solutions such as:
• Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN)
• Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT)
• Cardioplegia
• Base solutions
• Epidurals
WARNING
The compounder software is not intended to replace the professional judgment or
knowledge of a pharmacist or pharmacy technician.

body fits over the valve actuators on the compounder, protecting them from damage.
The outlet tube attaches to the destination bag. For ordering information, refer to Valve
Sets on Page 21.
• The inlet is a sterile tube with a spike or Luer end attached. The spike or Luer end
attaches to a source container, and the other end attaches to a port on the valve set.
The type of inlet that is used depends on the source container. For inlet types,
descriptions and ordering information, refer to Inlets on Page 18.
NOTE: The valve set and inlets are collectively known as the tube set.
• The destination bag is a sterile container that holds the fluid pumped from the source
containers. There are two main types of destination bags, which are available in
different sizes. For bag types, descriptions and ordering information, refer to Bags on
Page 19.
o The patient bag is used for delivering the finished solution to a patient. This bag
contains three ports for filling the bag, adding ingredients manually and
delivering the finished solution.
o The calibration bag is used for collecting any fluid that is not intended for a
patient. For example, this type of bag is used while calibrating and priming the
compounder. This bag contains only one port for filling the bag. The calibration
bag is available in North America only.

• Supports a maximum of 24 ingredients, source containers in volumes of 10–5,500 mL
and destination bags in volumes of 125–5,000 mL
• Allows you to attach the same ingredient to more than one port, creating an electronic
Y-site
• Allows you to specify the sequence in which ingredients are pumped
• Allows you to specify the accuracy limits for the finished solution
• Uses volumetric delivery, gravimetric verification and automatic calibration to help
ensure delivery accuracy
• Uses a bubble detector and occlusion detector
• Can be immediately stopped by lifting the pump door
• Can track ingredient lot numbers and ingredient expiration dates
• Generates a MixCheck™ Report for each finished solution
• Can print reports and barcode labels at the compounder’s printer
• Can be set up to communicate with the printer and the order-entry computer through a
network
ORDER ENTRY
Order entry can be done through direct entry, refer to page 77, or by using separate order-
entry software.
The ExactaMix operating software can communicate, via a network, with order-entry software
on a separate computer. The order-entry software must produce both a .PAT/.FRM file and a
corresponding barcode. Scanning the barcode at the compounder retrieves the .PAT/.FRM file.
Alternatively the order-entry software must be able to produce a formula label, containing the
formula details in the 2D barcode. Scanning the 2D barcode loads the formula onto the
compounder. For more information, refer to Loading the Formula on Page 75.
FORMULARY
The formulary is the list of ingredients, and associated products, which can be attached to the
compounder.

53007410 Rev. C Page 13
Features
An ingredient is a solution of a specific chemical entity at a specific concentration regardless of
container size, container type or manufacturer. One ingredient can have several associated
products.
A product is an ingredient in a particular container size and type from a specific manufacturer.
Several products can be associated to one ingredient group.
For example, in North America:
• Ingredient: Dextrose 70%
• Products:
o Hospira Dextrose 70%, 2000 mL bag
o Hospira Dextrose 70%, 1000 mL bag
o Hospira Dextrose 70%, 500 mL bottle
o Baxter Dextrose 70%, 2000 mL bag
o Baxter Dextrose 70% 1000 mL bottle
INGREDIENT GROUPS
An ingredient group is a list of chemically similar ingredients. For example:
• Ingredient Group: Phosphate
Ingredients: K Phos 3mM/mL, Na Phos 3mM/mL
• Ingredient Group: Calcium
Ingredients: Ca Gluconate 10%, Ca Chloride 10%
Some ingredients can tolerate each other’s presence in the finished solution, but must be
separated during compounding to ensure that they do not mix within the common fluid
pathway, or within the patient bag in the absence of sufficient volume. These ingredients are
considered to be incompatible. For example, calcium and phosphate should not be mixed in
their concentrated forms (in the absence of amino acids), or a precipitate will immediately
result. The compounder will pump incompatible ingredients only if it can pump a user-specified
volume of another ingredient between them.
Each ingredient group has a list of other groups with which it is incompatible. When ingredients
are assigned to these groups, the software can detect formulas in which incompatible
ingredients are not sufficiently separated.
UNIVERSAL INGREDIENT
When a patient bag is removed, approximately 25 mL of the last ingredient pumped remains in
the common fluid pathway. This ingredient then becomes the first ingredient to enter the next
patient bag when the next solution is compounded. Because this ingredient must be suitable
for all formulas, it is called the Universal Ingredient (UI).
Each formula must include enough UI volume to allow a final flush, which flushes all the
previous ingredients into the patient bag. Regardless of the total volume of the UI to be
delivered, the compounder reserves enough UI volume to perform a final flush at the end of

Page 14 53007410 Rev. C
Features
the compounding process. You can change the volume used for the final flush when creating a
configuration.
The UI is specified by the facility and is typically water or dextrose.
CONFIGURATION
A configuration identifies the products that will be attached to the ports, the sequence in which
they will be pumped, any allowable auto-additions, the ingredient and volume to use for any
ingredient flushes, the Universal Ingredient and the volume to use for the final flush.
BARCODE VERIFICATION
WARNING
It is important to use a barcode reader for scanning labels during verification of the
setup.
For the barcode verification to be effective, it is critical that the configuration be set up
properly. For instructions, refer to Attaching the New Ingredients and Inlets on
Page 48.
During daily setup, or when a source container must be replaced, the software guides you
through a process of barcode verification. You scan a barcode label on each inlet and each
source container to verify that the inlet is attached to the correct container.
Each inlet must be labeled with a barcode that identifies the port to which the inlet is attached.
These barcode labels are packaged with the valve set. The compounder software can also
generate a report that makes these labels available for printing.
Most source containers already have a manufacturer’s barcode label attached. For containers
that are filled or diluted in the pharmacy, the compounder software can also generate a report
that makes these labels available for printing.
Tip! Baxter strongly recommends using the manufacturer’s barcode whenever possible.
MEASUREMENT OF VOLUME AND WEIGHT

The compounder uses volumetric delivery to move fluid, with gravimetric verification to check
the final weight of the destination bag. The compounder also performs an automatic calibration
to maintain delivery accuracy.
Volumetric Delivery
The pump rotor moves as it pumps an ingredient into the destination bag. The amount of
movement determines the volume that is delivered.
Automatic Calibration
The pump is calibrated with water. A flow factor associated with each ingredient adjusts the
flow of that ingredient compared to the flow of water. The flow factor accounts for the
ingredient’s viscosity, the size and type of its source container, its inlet, its venting and other
factors that affect its delivery. As a result, calibrating with water automatically calibrates the
compounder for use with all the other ingredients.
53007410 Rev. C Page 15
Features
Every time the rotor pumps an uninterrupted delivery of 175 mL or more of water, the
compounder automatically performs a calibration of the rotor movement. Automatic
calibration maintains the rotor’s accuracy and reduces the need for manual adjustments.
Gravimetric Verification
The compounder provides feedback about its delivery accuracy by weighing the finished
solution and comparing that weight to the theoretical weight of a perfectly compounded
solution. This theoretical weight is computed by this formula:
PRINTING OPTIONS
The printer is used for printing reports and creating labels for inlets and source containers.
The printer can use standard 8.5 x 11 in. (21.6 x 28 cm) for reports and Avery® label sheets
(70x25,4mm) (or comparable sheets) for inlet flags.
For using A4 paper, in the Options window, change the reports directory path to C:\Program
Files\Baxter\Exacta-Mix 2400\Reports\A4. Refer to section Setting Up Directories Option on
page 121.
You can connect the printer to a:
• USB port on the display
• USB port on the order-entry computer, for use on a network
• Network via an Ethernet cable
The compounder software includes the printer drivers.
CAUTION
Use only Baxter-authorized printers with the compounder. Installing other printer
drivers on the compounder voids the compounder’s warranty.

Page 16 53007410 Rev. C
Features
NETWORK CONNECTIVITY
You can connect the compounder, via an Ethernet cable, to a:
• Facility network
• Mini-net that is typically shared only with the order-entry computer and the
compounder’s printer
The compounder reaches out to the network only to retrieve .PAT/.FRM files, send print jobs
and back up the database.
Baxter does not support network-related equipment, nor activities related to setting up or
troubleshooting network connectivity for the compounder.
Tip! If you connect the compounder to a network, Baxter recommends taking precautions to
minimize the compounder’s exposure to cyber threats. For example, isolate the compounder
behind a VLAN or use a router that acts as a firewall. For more information about network
security, contact Baxter Technical Services. Refer to Getting Help on Page 22.

Using the Compounder
USING THE COMPOUNDER

After you finish setting up the compounder, you are ready to load formulas and fulfill orders.
LOADING THE FORMULA

There are several methods for loading a formula onto the compounder. They are:
• Automatically loading a formula by scanning a barcode to retrieve the .PAT/.FRM file
(recommended)
• Automatically loading a formula by scanning the 2D formula barcode containing the
formula details.
• Manually entering a formula through direct entry
• Manually selecting a saved formula
Tip! Baxter strongly recommends loading a formula by scanning a barcode, and using the
manual entry or selection methods only when the barcode method fails. If the network
connection to the order-entry computer fails, you can still load a formula by scanning a
barcode. For instructions, refer to Loading a Formula by Connecting a USB Drive on Page 207.
NOTE: To enable barcode scanning (and, if desired, to require it for loading formulas), refer to
Barcode Reader on Page 120.
Loading a Formula by Scanning a Barcode

Most facilities use this method.
IMPORTANT! This method requires:
• Order-entry software on a separate computer. This software must be able to produce
both a .PAT/.FRM file and a corresponding label / report with a barcode. Both the
.PAT/.FRM file and barcode must be compatible with the compounder.
Alternatively, the software must also be able to produce a formula label, containing the
formula details in the 2D barcode and the 2D formula barcode must also be compatible
with the compounder. Baxter Abacus® TPN Calculation Software meets these
requirements. For more information, contact Baxter Technical Services. Refer to Getting
Help on Page 22.
• Network connection between the order-entry computer and the compounder
• Barcode reader at the compounder
The pharmacist creates an order in the order-entry software, which creates a .PAT/.FRM file
that contains the patient information and the formula. A corresponding label with a barcode
also prints at the same time. Alternatively, the order-entry software creates and prints a 2D
Formula Barcode label which directly contains the patient information and the formula.
Typically, a technician applies this label to a new patient bag and brings the bag to the
compounder. However, this process depends on your facility’s protocol.

53007410 Rev. C Page 75
At the compounder:
1. Navigate to the pump screen.
2. Scan the barcode on the label of the patient bag.
The compounder retrieves the order through the network and populates the pump
screen with the patient name, formula serial number and volume of each ingredient to
be pumped. The compounder reads the code number of each ingredient in the formula
and matches this number to one in the formulary. In the United States, the code
number is usually the National Drug Code (NDC).
WARNING
The code number for each product in the formula must exactly match the code
number for that product in the compounder’s formulary. If a code number is
assigned to one product in the order-entry software, and that number is
assigned to a different product in the compounder’s formulary, the
compounder may pump the wrong ingredient, resulting in patient harm. It is the
user’s responsibility to ensure that code numbers are properly and consistently
assigned in both systems.
NOTE: If any ordered ingredients are not in the configuration on the compounder, are
not allowed as auto-additions or have a volume less than 0.2 mL, the compounder
software will identify these ingredients as manual additions.
3. Continue with Fulfilling the Order (Basic Process) on Page 84.

Page 76 53007410 Rev. C
Entering a Formula through Direct Entry
Some facilities may use this method if the order-entry software is temporarily unavailable. With
this method, you must manually enter the volume of each ingredient to create a new formula.
This process creates a formula with a unique ID, but it does not create a 2D Formula
Barcode/.PAT/.FRM file or a corresponding label with a barcode.
WARNING
Formulas entered directly into the compounder should be checked by a pharmacist.
The compounder does not verify the formulas.
IMPORTANT! This function requires Formula Entry permissions. For more information about

formula and before starting the compounding process.
The message below, or one similar to it, appears and then automatically disappears.
The only exception is that the software does not unload the formula when you perform
an auto-addition.
Message
• The software usually unloads the formula when compounding is finished, regardless of
the outcome.
No message appears; however, you cannot use the formula for compounding again.
The only exception is that the software does not unload the formula when both of these
conditions occur together:
o The solution limit is more than 1 and has not yet been met, or the solution limit
is disabled. For more information, refer to Solution Limit on Page 121.
o Barcode scanning is not required to load a formula, but the formula was loaded
through this method. For more information, refer to Barcode Reader on

Performing a Manual Addition
A manual addition allows you to add an ingredient to the finished solution manually. This type
of addition may be necessary when the loaded formula includes an ingredient that meets one
or more of these conditions:
• It is not in the configuration.
• It is not identified as an allowable auto-addition.
• Its ordered volume is less than the 0.2 mL minimum required for use on the
compounder.
If a formula loaded by scanning a barcode includes an ingredient that must be added manually:

53007410 Rev. C Page 95
Handling an Air Bubble
An air bubble can occur at any time, but it most frequently occurs after attaching a source
container and priming the inlet. A bubble can be caused by an improperly spiked container, an
empty container or incomplete priming.
When the bubble detector finds a bubble in the outlet tube over the detector, the
compounding process stops and an alarm beeps. A message also appears.
1. At the Bubble was detected while pumping from port <port number> message, tap OK.
Message
IMPORTANT! A bubble in the common fluid pathway displaces the volume of one or
more ordered ingredients, causing an under-delivery of these ingredients.
2. Determine the impact of the bubble:
a. Check the size of the bubble using the EM2400 Bubble Chart (5300-0868) to
determine the volume of fluid displaced.
b. If more than one bubble is present, evaluate each bubble and add the values
together to determine the total volume of fluid displaced.
c. Identify all the ingredients pumped prior to the alarm, the ingredient pumped
during the alarm and the volume of each ingredient ordered.
Tip! Baxter recommends that a pharmacist evaluate the clinical significance of bubbles
encountered during the compounding process.
3. Ask a pharmacist to determine if the displaced volume is clinically significant for any of
the ingredients pumped. Assume that the total displaced volume applies to each
ingredient ordered.
4. If the clinical significance:
• Is acceptable, tap Resume at the pump screen to continue compounding the
solution, and do not continue with the steps below
• Is not acceptable, or cannot be determined, continue with the next step to cancel
the order
Tip! Baxter recommends documenting all decisions according to your facility’s protocol.
5. Immediately write a large “X” on the label of the patient bag.

12. Remove the bag. Refer to Removing the Patient Bag on Page 90.
13. Discard the bag.
NOTE: To help reduce the occurrence of bubbles and make their detection more accurate, you
can:
• Use proper technique to spike the containers. Refer to the steps for spiking a container,
starting on Page 51.
• Re-prime any inlets that have visible bubbles. Refer to Priming the Inlets and Verifying
the Setup on Page 62.
• Increase the priming volume in the configuration. Refer to Adding or Editing a
Configuration on Page 132.
• Clean the channel over the bubble detector. Refer to CLEANING THE COMPOUNDER on
Page 101.
• Make sure that the outlet tube is in the proper position. It should be at the bottom of
the channel over the bubble detector. Refer to Step 7a on Page 46.
Handling an Occlusion
An occlusion can be caused by an empty syringe, stuck syringe plunger, kinked tube or other
obstruction in the inlet.
When the occlusion detector detects that a vacuum was drawn, indicating an occlusion
somewhere between the source container and the detector, the compounding process stops
and an alarm beeps. A message appears, and a red occlusion symbol also appears near the
ingredient button.
Occlusion symbol
1. Immediately write a large “X” on the label of the patient bag.

tasks:
• Calibrate the load cell
• Change the tube set
• Clean the compounder
• Calibrate the compounder
• Shut down and start up the compounder
• Back up and compact the database
CALIBRATING THE LOAD CELL

This procedure is usually performed as part of the daily setup.
For instructions, refer to Calibrating the Load Cell on Page 37.
CHANGING THE TUBE SET

For instructions, refer to Changing the Tube Set on Page 42.
CLEANING THE COMPOUNDER

Clean the compounder when indicated by your facility’s protocol. Use only these approved
materials:
• Non-abrasive cloth
• Soap and water
• 70% isopropyl alcohol or another self-drying disinfectant
• Povidone iodine
Tip! Baxter recommends cleaning the compounder daily or whenever you change the tube set,
or whenever there is a spill.
CAUTION
Cleaning is required to ensure that the compounder operates as intended. Failure to
clean the compounder can impair its operation.
Do not immerse the compounder in liquid or use sodium hypochlorite solutions (for
example, Clorox®).
Disassembling the compounder beyond what is needed for cleaning as described in
this procedure voids the manufacturer’s warranty.

CALIBRATING THE COMPOUNDER

For instructions, refer to Calibrating the Compounder on Page 69.
SHUTTING DOWN AND STARTING UP THE COMPOUNDER

Tip! Baxter recommends fully shutting down and starting up the compounder once a day, to
allow the software to perform routine database maintenance at startup.
For instructions, refer to Starting Up, Logging In and Out, and Shutting Down on Page 30.
BACKING UP AND COMPACTING THE DATABASE

The compounder’s database accumulates data related to solutions, formulas and logs. For
example, the software records important device activity in a Blackbox log, which Baxter can
access through the Blackbox Report when needed. The compounder stores this data for a
specified time period. To set up the storage options, refer to Storage on Page 114.
When you shut down the software, the compounder automatically backs up the database. If
required during troubleshooting, you can use the backup data to restore the software settings
to an earlier state. When you start up the software, it notifies you if more than seven days have
passed since the last backup occurred. In this situation, perform a manual backup.
Tip! Baxter recommends performing a manual backup at least once a week or after changing
the system settings.
You can also compact the database to reduce its space on the hard drive and keep the
compounder operating efficiently. To set up the compaction options, refer to Database
Compaction on Page 116.

NOTE: For a product to appear in the list, it must first be in the formulary. Refer
to Using the Formulary Editor on Page 139.
b. Select the Prime Volume. You can leave the standard volume that is
automatically selected, or select the minimum volume.
Tip! Baxter recommends using the standard prime volume to ensure that the
inlets are primed and any bubbles are removed.
NOTE: The prime volume is used during setup of the compounder. This volume
must be set for each product that is in each configuration. Auto-addition
ingredients are always primed with the standard volume.
c. If the selected product requires an ingredient flush after it is delivered, select the
flush ingredient in the Flush With list and set the flush volume in the Volume
field.
NOTE: For example, to force a flush when lipids are pumped in a 3-in-1 bag, set
the port with the appropriate flush ingredient and volume. Typically, the flush
ingredient is the Universal Ingredient, but it can be any ingredient in the
configuration and the formula. For an ingredient to appear in the Flush With list,
it must first be specified as an allowable Universal Ingredient in the formulary.
Refer to Using the Formulary Editor on Page 139.
d. Tap OK.

LOADING A FORMULA BY CONNECTING A USB DRIVE

Some facilities may use this method if they use order-entry software but the network is
temporarily unavailable.
IMPORTANT! This method requires:
• Formula Entry permissions. For more information about user groups and permissions,
refer to Setting Up the Users on Page 123.
• Order-entry software on a separate computer. This software must be able to produce
both a .PAT/.FRM file and a corresponding label with a barcode. Both the .PAT/.FRM file
and barcode must be compatible with the compounder. Abacus software meets these
requirements. For more information, or if a barcode cannot be printed, contact Baxter
Technical Services. Refer to Getting Help on Page 22.
• USB drive
NOTE: Be sure that the USB drive is free of viruses.
• Barcode reader at the compounder
In the order-entry software, the pharmacist creates an order, which creates a barcode and the
corresponding .PAT/.FRM file that contains the patient information and the formula. The
pharmacist saves the order onto a USB drive. A corresponding label with the barcode also prints
at the same time. Typically, a technician applies this label to a new patient bag and brings it to
the compounder. However, this process depends on your facility’s protocol.
At the compounder:
1. Connect the USB drive to a USB port on the bottom of the display.
2. Set up the EXACTAMIX software to look for formula files on the USB drive. For
instructions, refer to Setting Up the Directories Options on Page 121.
NOTE: The software will continue to look for formula files in this location until you
change it back to the original location.
3. Scan the barcode on the label of the patient bag.

53007410 Rev. C Page 207
Glossary
The compounder retrieves the order file from the USB drive and populates the pump
screen with the name and volume of each ingredient to be pumped. The compounder
reads the code number of each ingredient in the formula and matches this number to
one in the formulary. In the United States, the code number is usually the NDC.
WARNING
The code number for each product in the formula must exactly match the code
number for that product in the compounder’s formulary. If a code number is
assigned to one product in the order-entry software, and that number is
assigned to a different product in the compounder’s formulary, the
compounder may pump the wrong ingredient. It is the user’s responsibility to
ensure that code numbers are properly and consistently assigned in both
systems.
NOTE: If any ordered ingredients are not in the configuration on the compounder, are
not allowed as auto-additions or have a volume less than 0.2 mL, the compounder
software will identify these ingredients as manual additions.
