Program Limits (including MediGuard

Under 'Change Set Up' users can choose from a number of options to limit protocol

parameters and set safe ceilings on drugs infused. When the MediGuard

is on users are asked to set the patients weight (kg) and a toxicity ceiling in ml, mg

or mcg per hour per kilo bodyweight. If users try to set a protocol where the

component elements (basal rate and boluses) exceeds the MediGuard

pump will alert the user to this and request they re-confirm their intentions, amend

or revise the toxicity ceiling. Level One users will not be able to change the protocol

or ceiling under Select Protocol and will have to select an alternative appropriate

protocol or consult senior clinical staff with Level 3 authority. Alternatively you can

choose to simply limit either the rate or number of boluses delivered over either a 1,

4, or 24 hour period according to local practice.

Pump Accuracy

The following graphs and curves were derived from testing described in IEC60601-2-24.

Testing was performed under normal conditions at room temperature (72° F or 22° C).

Any deviations from normal conditions and room temperature may cause changes in the

accuracy of the pump.

Start-up Curves

The Start-up curves represent continuous flow versus operating time for two hours from

the start of the infusion. They exhibit the delay in onset of delivery due to mechanical

compliance and provide a visual representation of uniformity. Trumpet curves are

derived from the second hour of this data. Tests performed according to IEC 60601-2-24

standard.
