– Recommended Checks during
Infusion
It is recommended that procedures are established for regular checks on the progress of the infusion.
Patients, relatives as well as medical staff, should be made aware of a few simple checks that can be
made. These are to confirm the following: -
CHECK THE LCD DISPLAY to confirm the pump is still running at the same infusion rate as
originally set (unless the Titration option has been enabled and the user/patient has been
authorized to adjust the rate within the programmed limits)
CHECK THE GREEN LED IS FLASHING AND/OR “<<<<<Pump Delivering” animation appears
intermittently on the bottom line of the LCD display (green delivery LED can be disabled or the
interval lengthened to preserve battery life)
CHECK FOR SIGNS OF PHYSICAL DAMAGE to the Pump or accessories.
PRESS THE INFO KEY to check:
SINGLE PRESS
- Volume to be Infused
(VTBI) &
Volume Infused (VI). Syringe
graphic shows VTBI
& VI in graphical form
DOUBLE PRESS
for Battery life remaining shown as a
percentage and in graph form.
NOTE:
After pressing the INFO key either a third press or waiting a few seconds returns the
display to the main infusion display screen. Excessive key presses or usage of the INFO feature
will reduce battery life. Use only as required to optimize battery performance.
Event Log (History)
The event log shows a complete time and date stamped record of the last 512 pump events along with a
record of pump status (volume infused, rate, etc) at the time of the event. Event log data cannot be
deleted or altered. To view the event log: -
1.
Press STOP to temporarily interrupt the infusion
2.
Press the
INFO key and scroll to ‘Event Log’. Press YES to
confirm selection.
3.
Screen now shows the most current event, alarm, date, time,
etc. Use the Up & Down arrow keys to scroll through events to find the event of interest (e.g.
an alarm or programming change).
4.
Pressing INFO when on any chosen event to display further
data regarding this event. The user can scroll through the
information using the UP and DOWN arrow keys to check how
the pump was set up, whether keypad lock was ON and the
pressure settings and other technical data at the time of the
event.
NOTE:
Each event is assigned a number and the pump stores the last 512 in memory. The
event log “loops” adding the newest and deleting the oldest event.
