Detailed Instructions
Programming CUSTOM DILUTION Mode
In this mode, the pump runs at a programmed, constant rate. The infusion is programmed
in terms of target rate, patient body weight, initial drug concentration, target dose, and
final volume. The pump calculates and displays the drug volume to be mixed with
sufficient IV base fluid to yield the programmed final volume. The final concentration is
displayed when a bolus or infusion is initiated.
Note: The rate, body weight, concentration, and dose fields will not be editable after the
confirm key is pressed. Power the pump off and then back on to make these fields
editable again.
