Detailed Instructions
Programming Units/hr, Units/min, mUnits/hr, and mUnits/min Modes
In these modes, the pump runs at a programmed, constant rate. The infusion is
programmed in terms of drug concentration and dose.
Note: If a protocol has been selected, the infusion mode may have been selected auto-
matically.
1. At the SELECT MODE ▲▼ prompt, use ▲ or ▼ to display the available infusion mode
selections. Press
CONFIRM to select the desired infusion mode.
2. Use ▲ or ▼ and CONFIRM as required to select the syringe manufacturer and size.
Note: If a protocol has been selected, a default drug concentration may appear automat-
ically. If a default drug concentration is displayed, use
▲ and ▼ or the digit keys to
modify this value as necessary, and press
CONFIRM to complete the data entry.
3. At the ENTER CONCENTR prompt, enter the drug concentration (CONC.) in Units/mL.
Press
CONFIRM to complete the data entry.
Note: If a protocol has been selected, a default dose may appear automatically. Use
▲
and ▼ or the digit keys to modify this value as necessary, and press CONFIRM to
complete the data entry.
4. At the ENTER DOSE prompt, enter the dose in Units/hr, Units/min, mUnits/hr, or
mUnits/min (mUnits = milliUnits), depending on the infusion mode selected. Press
CONFIRM to complete the data entry. The pump automatically calculates and displays
the equivalent rate in mL/hr.
Bolus in Units/hr, Units/min, mUnits/hr, and mUnits/min Modes
Note: If a protocol has been selected, bolus delivery may be disallowed or a default
bolus size may appear automatically. If a default bolus size is displayed, use ▲
and ▼ or the digit keys to modify the value as necessary.
In these modes, bolus size is entered in Units or mUnits. The pump automatically
calculates the equivalent bolus size in mL and displays both values. Bolus rate is
displayed in mL/hr. See “Bolus Function” on page 55 for more information on bolus
delivery.
