I started with these bad boys:

Since those are no longer available or even supported the places I've worked use the Sigma Spectrums.

Thank you, I look forward to other responses. After reading a research article, those three seem to be the most popular, but I haven't found anyone who actually uses the Hospira Plum A pumps. I used them once at an older hospital, but I wonder if they are being phased out.

Yeah, I’m that old. The bottom one was super high-tech at the time.

We use Hospira Plum. I'm not a fan. I'm very comfortable with Alaris, but was disappointed that my new (and better) employer uses Hospira. They seem overly complicated to me, and what a pain trying to find the programmed meds.
