Pain Management
Therapy Features and Specifications
This therapy allows programming of a continuous only, bolus only, or continuous with
bolus delivery.

bolus when entering or changing a program. The continuous rate and bolus volume
cannot be zero at the same time.

Note: The pump only delivers in increments of 0.1 mL. Values entered in a Pain
Management therapy may be rounded to the nearest 0.1 mL. For example, at a
concentration of 15 mg/mL, a rate of 5 mg rounds to 4.5 mg.
5 mg = .333 mL
4.5 mg = .3 mL
When a value is rounded, the pump sounds four quick beeps,
ROUNDING
displays for a
few seconds, and then the rounded value displays. Press
[
YES/ENTER

to accept the
rounded value and continue to the next step.
