● If the Size Override configuration option is enabled, an operator can manually
override the Syringe Recognition feature. Incorrect syringe information may cause
delivery errors.
Special Precautions for Epidural Administration
● Epidural administration of anesthetics is limited to short-term infusion (not to exceed
96 hours) with indwelling catheters specifically indicated for short-term anesthetic
epidural drug delivery.
● Epidural administration of analgesics is limited to use with indwelling catheters
specifically indicated for either short- or long-term analgesic epidural drug delivery.
● To prevent infusion of drugs that are not indicated for epidural use, do not use IV
extension sets that incorporate injection sites during epidural delivery.
● It is strongly recommended that pumps used for epidural drug delivery be clearly
differentiated from pumps used for other routes of administration.
WARNING: Epidural administration of drugs other than those indicated
for epidural use could result in serious injury to the patient.
