Timing Rules when Interrupting Intermittent Therapies

Remember, this therapy is time dependent, and the following rules

apply for interruptions in the therapy.

For the Intermittent Therapy the pump automatically cycles through dosing and KVO. A single

beep alerts the user to the change in the cycle. If the KVO rate is set at “0” the pump can be off

between those doses.

When the pump is idle or OFF, the internal time clock of the pump continues to monitor the

dosing cycle and the following time considerations apply:

1 When the infusion is resumed thirty minutes or less past the scheduled “Next Dose Time,”

the dose is ready for immediate delivery and no changes will be made in the original

scheduling except to shorten the next “KVO” time between doses to comply with the dosing

cycle.

2 When the infusion is resumed more than thirty minutes past the scheduled “Next Dose

Time,” the next dose will be ready for delivery when the pump is turned on. All subsequent

dosing will be shifted to keep the dosing cycle consistent unless the “NXT DOSE” Option is

used to change subsequent dose times.

3 If a dose in progress is interrupted for thirty minutes or less and the infusion is resumed, the

dose in progress will resume, and the only adjustment made will be to shorten the next KVO

time between doses. If a dose in progress is interrupted for more than thirty minutes and the

infusion is resumed, the dose in progress will be terminated. If necessary, use the “NXT

DOSE” Option to reset the next dose delivery time.

4 If the KVO cycle is interrupted before reaching the time for next dose, no changes occur in

dosing time cycles.

If it is necessary to change the batteries during the delivery of an

intermittent dose, be sure to press the “PAUSE” key and then turn the

pump off before

removing the batteries. If the pump is delivering a

dose and the batteries are removed without first pausing the pump,

the dose in progress will be aborted.

complete), the following screen displays:
