How to fill out infusion pumps

How to fill out infusion pumps:

1. First, gather all the necessary supplies such as the medication to be infused, tubing, and an infusion pump.
2. Wash your hands thoroughly to maintain a sterile environment and prevent any potential infections.
3. Ensure that the medication is properly labeled and has not expired. If using a multi-dose vial, make sure to check for any signs of contamination.
4. Connect one end of the tubing to the medication container and the other end to the infusion pump. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper connection.
5. Prime the tubing by removing any air bubbles. This can be done by squeezing the drip chamber until it is halfway filled with the medication.
6. Set the correct flow rate on the infusion pump based on the prescribed dosage and the patient's weight or condition. Ensure that the pump is in the correct units (mL/hr or drops/min).
7. Before starting the infusion, double-check all the settings on the pump to ensure accuracy. Pay close attention to the infusion time and any specific instructions from the healthcare provider.
8. Place the medication container in the pump's holder or hang it using the appropriate hook or hanger.
9. Start the infusion pump by pressing the appropriate buttons or selecting the appropriate settings. The pump will start delivering the medication at the desired flow rate.
10. Monitor the infusion regularly, checking for any signs of complications such as infiltration, occlusion, or adverse reactions. Note any changes in the patient's vital signs or symptoms.
11. Once the infusion is complete, dispose of any used supplies properly according to healthcare guidelines. Document the infusion details in the patient's medical records.
