Securing Continuous Infusions of Controlled Substances

Forums: 

I’m interested in know if/how hospitals are securing their controlled substances being administered as a continuous infusion (e.g. fentanyl, midazolam).

Do you secure the controlled substance infusion bag/syringe when they are hanging on a patient?

If so, do you place the infusion bag/syringe in a locked box?
If so, do use a key lock or combination lock?

Do you use a lockable PCA pump to administer continuous controlled substance infusions?
