Curlin PainSmart User Manual - Med-E-Quip Locators

Description of the Custom Features
A customized Curlin Infusion PainSmart IOD pump may have Maximum Basal Rate
Limit and Maximum Bolus and Dose Limits values that are different from previous default
maximum values for all administrative routes (IV, EPI, and SQ), and a different Lock Level
other than the default value OFF. These values, once programmed at the factory, can not be
changed unless the pump is initialized or a new setting is programmed, both of which must
be performed by Curlin or factory trained biomedical professionals.
1 Customized Maximum Basal Rate Limit
A customized Curlin Infusion PainSmart IOD pump may come with a Maximum Basal
Rate Limit value set in the factory that is different from the default maximum value.
An alert will be displayed if a value greater than the factory set Maximum Basal Rate Limit
value is entered in BASL RATE, MedLMTS Mx Rate, and MedLMTS Delta Rate.
For example, while programming a PCA (IV) therapy in a customized Curlin Infusion
PainSmart IOD pump, where the Maximum Basal Rate Limit is factory set to be 9.9 for
IV administration route, if you enter 21 for BASL RATE, an alert message will appear:
“GREATER THAN MAX. FIELD LIMIT MAX=9.9”
The values you are allowed to enter in this example, for BASL RATE, are between 0.1 and
9.9, with an increment of 0.1. Same limit will apply to MedLMTS Mx Rate, and MedLMTS
Delta Rate also, if the therapy calls for them.
