During the delay start period, if the KVO rate is set to 0, no fluid is

infusing. Be sure the access device is patent and has been flushed

per facility policy to maintain patency during this time period. If a

KVO rate is programmed, then that KVO rate will be used in the

Delay Start period.

4 NEXT?: If there are any changes to be made, use the up or down arrow keys to locate the

field to be changed, use the numeric keys to enter the corrected information and press

“YES/ENTER” to accept the new data. If all the fields are acceptable, move the cursor to

the “NEXT?” field and press the “YES/ENTER” key to move on to the next screen.

At the following screen, the prescription information is entered to complete the programming of

the pump. Note that the screen Identifier gives you the abbreviation “INT” for Intermittent

Therapy and has a down arrow configuration, which indicates that there are more than four fields

of text or information to be considered.

Intermittent Prescription Menu

1 BAG Vol (IV Bag Volume): Using the numeric keys to enter the amount of fluid in the IV

Bag or Medication Reservoir (include the overfill volume).

Note: The volume used for priming via the pump or for KVO is deducted from the Bag

Volume. Therefore, Bag Volume should be equal to or greater than the Amount To Be

Infused to start the infusion.

When the correct amount has been entered, press the “YES/ENTER” key to accept this

field and move on to the next. The range for this field is 1 to 9999.

2 AMT/DOSE (Amount per Dose): Using the numeric keys, enter the actual amount per dose

to be delivered. The “Units” selected in the prescription menu will automatically appear in

this field whether ml, mg, or mcg. When the amount is correctly entered, use the

“YES/ENTER” key to accept this field and to move to the next. The range for this field is

0.1 to 999.

3 DOSE RATE (Rate at which each dose is to be delivered): The Curlin Medical pump can

deliver from 0.1 ml to 400 ml per hour. Use the numeric keys to enter the prescribed rate

(again, the units chosen in the pre-infusion menu will appear here). When the correct rate

displays, use the “YES/ENTER” key to accept the rate, and move to the next field.
