When Can You Program a Bolus Dose?

The BOLUS soft key becomes active on the Continuous Infusion screen when a VTBI is entered. The drug being programmed must be a bolusable drug and the bolus VTBI cannot exceed the programmed continuous infusion VTBI.

If you want to give a bolus dose before the continuous infusion, verify the continuous infusion parameters and then press the BOLUS soft key.
