Programming Screens
Infusion Volume
This is the total volume of fluid to be delivered. The reservoir volume
must be large enough to support the entire infusion volume. Therefore,
programming the infusion volume may result in an automatic increase in
the reservoir volume.
Entering a new infusion volume resets the infusion so that delivery starts at
the beginning of the infusion duration.
Initial Rate
This is the initial rate of medication delivery. Entering a new initial rate
resets the infusion so that delivery starts at the beginning of the infusion
duration.
Rate Increment
This is the amount that you want medication delivery to increase by for each
step. Entering a new rate increment resets the infusion so that delivery starts
at the beginning of the infusion duration.
Plateau Rate
This is the maximum rate at which you want the medication to be delivered.
The pump begins at the initial rate, and increases by the rate increment
until the plateau rate is reached. The pump runs at the plateau rate until the
infusion volume is fully delivered.
Entering a new plateau rate resets the infusion so that delivery starts at the
beginning of the infusion duration.
Rates above 250 mL/hr require a CADD
®
high volume administration set.
Step Duration
This is the length of time programmed for each step during medication
delivery. After infusion occurs for the step duration, the rate increases by the
rate increment unless the current rate is equal to the plateau rate.
Entering a new step duration resets the infusion so that delivery starts at the
beginning of the infusion duration.
