Set Up PCA Dose and Continuous Infusion (Continued)
• If the programmed parameters are outside the Hard
Limit for that care area, an audio alert sounds and a
visual prompt appears before programming can
continue. Infusion must be reprogrammed.
• If there is a potential for a programmed "_ _ / _ _ mL"
parameter to result in an excessive volume or dose
being delivered, following prompt appears:
"Cannot proceed due to incorrect concentration or
dosing parameters. Remove syringe, verify
concentration, and reprogram."
The prompt can be (a) the result of an incorrect drug
amount and/or diluent volume entry, or (b) can occur if
hospital-established Guardrails limits are very wide.
Be sure to enter either a drug amount per
drug amount per total volume—for example, a 30 mL
syringe with a concentration of 1 mg/1 mL can be
entered in one of two ways:
Drug Amount
Diluent Volume
OR
Drug Amount
Diluent Volume
• If a Soft Limit is overridden, G icon is displayed. When
G soft key is pressed, all applicable out-of-range limits
are listed.
