Programming Options
The pump can be programmed to provide:
Q
PCA, Basal and PCA (Basal+PCA), or Continuous infusions
Q
Infusion rates in mL, mg, and
μ
g
Q
Physician-prescribed values for the desired therapy
Q
Clinician- or institution-selected operating limits
When the pump is programmed for PCA, the patient has the option of self-administering analgesic
medications on an as-needed basis. The Basal+PCA programming option combines this patient-controlled
method with a minimum continuous dose.
Record Management
The pump tracks the programming, time, and history of each infusion. All of this data is retained in the
memory of the pump’s microprocessor when the pump is off.
The pump is equipped with a real-time clock that provides the correct date and time for record management.
The date and time are displayed on the screen and included on any printouts generated by using the optional
printer.
