OPERATION
• A second prompt requires responding yes with u to "Continue without limits".
• Respond “yes” or “no” to "Use dose rate calc?" (if configured). See Section 2.2.4.
Note: While under Basic Infusion, the pump is not using any drug library safety limits.
• The pump requires user to enter 2 out of 3 of the following parameters: rate,
VTBI or time. When 2 are entered, the pump calculates the 3rd parame
ter.
SECondary, programmed bolus and manual bolus are also available in Basic mode, See
Section 1.4, 1.7, 1.8. The target symbol appears next to the programmed value,
other than rate, that was first set by the user. When a rate titration is made the value
with the is not changed, rather the 3rd calculated value is adjusted for the new
rate. As an example if a rate of 10ml/hr and time of 20hrs is p
rogrammed the VTBI is
calculated, when rate is titrated the VTBI is changed not the time. If the rate and VTBI
are initally programmed the time would change with a change in rate. The parameter
with the target symbol does not change during titration of either of the other 2 para-
meters.
1.) Enter VTBI and time: The infusion rate will be calculated and displayed on the
bottom of the display.
• Select VTBI with t and open with l.
• Enter VTBI with q and confirm with k.
• Select time with t and open with l.
• Enter time with q and confirm with k.
Rate titration will result in adjustment of time. Alternatively:
2.) Enter rate and VTBI: The infusion time will be calculated and displayed on the
bottom of the display.
Rate titration will result in re-calculation of time.
