Infusion pump library strategies
What does your infusion pump library look like for medications that have different doses/dose ranges based on indication or organ function? Example: We have Alaris/EPIC integration and we have different vasopressin entries (shock versus GI bleed). We are specifically looking at bivalirudin and the potential use in ECMO. We already have two entries (bivalirudin PCI and bivalirudin PCI with renal dysfunction) and are wondering what strategies others have put into place in order to optimize guardrail limits without overloading the number of entries.
thanks,
Gina
