KVO Rate<br />

Section 2: Pump Setup and Programming<br />

The KVO or “Keep Vein Open” rate is optional. It allows the delivery of a<br />

medication to help maintain catheter patency. The programming range is 0 to<br />

125 ml/hr. If the time the next Dose Starts in is programmed, the KVO rate is<br />

active during the initial delay. The KVO rate is also active between doses.<br />

Dose Remaining<br />

The Dose Remaining screen is displayed during dosing or if a dose was<br />

interrupted. This screen displays the time in hours and minutes that are<br />

required to infuse the remaining portion of the dose.<br />

NOTE: If the dose is interrupted and the pump is stopped, both the Dose<br />

Remaining and “Dose Starts in” screens will be displayed in the programming<br />

screens. When the pump is restarted, the remainder of the interrupted dose<br />

will be delivered. If a full dose needs to be delivered, the “Dose Starts In” screen<br />

must be reprogrammed before starting the pump. The user should always<br />

review all of the programming screens to verify when the pump is within the<br />

dosing cycle. The “Dose Starts in” screen, shown with “— hrs — min,” allows<br />

the user to reset the time after which the dose should start.<br />

Dose Starts in<br />

The “Dose Starts in” screen allows you to delay the start of delivery up to<br />

4 days by allowing you to select the amount of time after which the first<br />

dose should begin. The pump must be running after the selected delay in<br />

order for delivery to begin. If a delayed start is not desired, program the<br />

Dose Starts in to “Immediate” so that delivery will begin as soon as you<br />

start the pump.<br />

The delay of the start of the next dose can be programmed in Lock<br />

Level 0 or Lock Level 1 at any time, but if a dose is in progress, this will<br />

cancel the remainder of the dose.<br />

Given<br />

This screen shows the total amount of medication delivered since the last<br />

time this value was cleared. The amount shown is rounded to the nearest<br />

0.01 ml. If this value reaches 99999.95, it automatically returns to 0<br />

and continues counting. The Given amount does not include medication<br />

delivered with the priming feature.<br />
