WARNING
Syringe size and running force, variations of back pressure, or any combination
of these may affect rate accuracy. Factors that can influence back pressure
are: administration set configuration,
temperature. Back pressure may also be affected by type of catheter. See
"Trumpet and Start-Up Curves" for data on how these factors influence rate
accuracy.
