NOTE:
The minimum volume to be infused (VTBI) for both pump module and
syringe module (applicable to all
syringe sizes) is 0.1mLs. This applies to Continuous Infusions, Bolus Dose, Intermittent Infusions, and IV
Fluids. The set length and temperature of the administration set can affect occlusion time to alarm.
Increases in temperature and increases in the length may increase time to alarm.
Syringe size and running force, variations of back pressure, or any
combination of these can affect
time to alarm for occlusions and
rate accuracy.
Factors that can influence back pressure are:
Administration set configuration, IV solution viscosity, and IV
solution temperature. Back pressure can also be affected by type of
catheter. See Trumpet and Start-Up Curves on page 254 for data on
how these factors influence rate accuracy.
Shock Protection:
