Smart pumps = Stupid pumps? - Page 2
Register Today!- Jul 10, '11 by NICU_babyRNI believe this Baxter pump people are talking about is actually the Alaris Smart Pump by Care Fusion. That's the one that has a "brain" plus up to 4 modules. It has the guardrails, syringe modules and others.
- Jul 11, '11 by umcRNQuote from RAIZIEwe use medfusion syringe pumps, looks like this - http://www.somatechnology.com/Medica...inge-pumps.aspWe are about to get the Baxter smart pumps house-wide but I didn't think they had smart syringe pumps. We are looking for a syringe pump for SCN and Peds because that's how our pharmacy prepares the meds.
Can you clarify please exactly what pump you are using?
And, BTW, I believe you are 100% correct about liability if one bypasses the guardrail system.
