Setting a protocol based on a combination of boluses and basal rate (or only
boluses)
Pump will enable program operation only if the basal rate set is equal or less than
maximal MediGuard® rate (If rate is out of limits, pressing start/ok from
accumulation screen will display "drug limit overflow" message). In case the
program basal rate is less than MediGuard® maximal allowed rate, the pump will
count the difference between the two different rates. The difference between the
actual rate and the maximal MediGuard® rate will be stored in the credit buffer. As
program begins, the credit buffer will automatically include volume for one bolus.
Maximum volume saved in the credit buffer is bolus volume. The credit is used to
enable delivering of patient and clinician boluses. Whenever a bolus is required
(either by the patient or by the clinician): If the bolus volume is less than the
volume in the buffer, the bolus will be delivered at maximal bolus rate; If the bolus
volume is higher than the volume in the buffer, the volume in the buffer will be
delivered at maximal bolus rate and the remaining bolus volume will be delivered
at MediGuard® maximal rate.
 NOTE:
1. Setting MediGuard® option ON shall disable the Clinician bolus option from
the menu. Any attempt to give a clinician bolus from the Menu will display the
following message: "MediGuard® set ON Clinician boluses can be Given
from protocol only "
2. The MediGuard® option is replacing the 4 hour limit, therefore setting
MediGuard®
not shown in the parameters settings.
Setting Auto Bolus
Auto bolus is the facility to set an automatic (Intermittent) bolus, this is an
alternative to a patient controlled bolus. Auto bolus is not available on pump default
settings, it can only be activated via the technician menu. Once activated, it allows
the operator to chose between patient bolus and an automatic bolus during the
modify protocol process, if an automatic bolus was chosen a warning screen will
appear to clarify the procedure and the operator will need to confirm it by pressing
 NOTE:
1. When a protocol is selected with the auto bolus feature activated the pump
will deliver the predetermined dose at a predetermined time without the need
for a remote bolus request from the patient.
2. The bolus delivery can be stopped at any time by pressing
