Programming a Primary Infusion
Use the Alaris® Auto-ID module to scan IV medication containers. The
Alaris® Auto-ID module matches the medication identifier from
the IV container bar code with the medication identifier from
the Guardrails® drug library. If the patient ID is in
the IV container bar code, the system will also verify right patient.
- To start, perform the steps to associate the Alaris® System
with the patient and, if necessary, disable
tamper resist mode.
- When the green ready light illuminates
on
the Alaris® Auto-ID module, press the SCAN/CANCEL key or
the SCAN button
on the hand held scanner to scan the bar code on the IV container.
- Press the CHANNEL SELECT key on the appropriate channel and program
the infusion.
