PCA Delivery Mode
PCA (patient-controlled analgesia) delivery is used for therapies that require a continuous rate of infusion,
patient-controlled demand doses, and/or a clinician-activated bolus. The delivery methods available are:
•
Continuous rate
•
PCA dose, a demand dose activated by the patient
•
Clinician bolus, a dose activated by the clinician
Each of the methods may be programmed individually or in combination with each other. The graph
below illustrates the combined delivery methods. Ranges and programming increments are listed in
Specifications (Nominal) on page 125 .
Home Screen
The delivery mode and status of the infusion are indicated on the home screen with messages appearing
in text, a graphic in a shape unique to the therapy, and with the colors green, red, and gray. The
colors indicate that the pump is running (green), or stopped (red). If a new patient or new infusion is
programmed but the pump has not been started, or if a delayed start time was programmed and the start
time passed while the pump was stopped and not yet started, the graphic is entirely gray. The location of
the color on the graphic also indicates the status of the infusion. The examples below are specific to the
PCA delivery mode.
•
The pump is stopped with a programmed delayed start.
•
The pump is running and delivering at a continuous rate.
•
The pump is running and delivering a PCA bolus.
PCA graphics do not depict the following:
•
The amount of the PCA dose compared to the continuous rate.
•
The number of PCA doses attempted or delivered.
