PCA: Starting a Clinician Bolus
A Clinician Bolus may be delivered in any lock level while the pump is running.
It allows you to deliver a specified amount of drug, as a loading dose for
example. Lockout settings have no affect on Clinician Bolus frequency. However,
a Clinician Bolus cannot be started while a Demand Dose is in progress.
The amount delivered decreases the Reservoir Volume and increases the Given
amount, but does not add to the Dose Counters. A Clinician Bolus may be
stopped in progress.
WARNING: Exercise extreme care when using the Clinician Bolus function.
Since there are no limits on the frequency of delivering a bolus, and since the
amount of the bolus can be set as high as 20 ml (or the mg or mcg equivalent),
you should not permit the patient to become familiar with the procedure for
giving a Clinician Bolus. Improper programming could result in death or
serious injury to the patient.
To start a Clinician Bolus
1. Make sure the pump is running (in any
lock level). Start the pump if necessary.
