programmed delayed start

deliver at a continuous rate

Programming Screens
Continuous Rate
•
The desired continuous rate of
medication delivery. Rates above
250 mL/hr require a CADD
volume administration set
KVO Rate
•
The KVO or "keep vein open" rate
is optional. It allows the delivery
of a minimal amount of drug to
help maintain catheter patency. If
a KVO rate is programmed, it will
only be active if a delayed start
is programmed. The pump will
infuse at the KVO rate until the
programmed infusion begins
• Reservoir Volume
The volume of fluid contained in
the reservoir. The reservoir volume
value decreases as the pump is
primed or delivers fluid
Start Time
•
The time the next infusion will
begin. It is displayed only if the
delayed start is programmed.
The pump must be running on
the selected date and time in order
for the infusion to begin
