Abstract
Configuration output for use in configuring a patient care device for administration of a therapy to a patient. The configuration output may include at least one code. The code may be used in the verification and/or indication of at least one configuration data component used in the configuration of the patient care device to be used to administer a therapy to a patient. Additionally, a check code for validation of the entry of the code and/or check code may be provided.
Claims20
An infusion apparatus comprising:
- a pumping mechanism configured to control a flow of intravenous fluid through an administration set from a container to a patient;
- a display;
- an input device;
- and
- a computer readable medium configured, when executed, to:
- receive data corresponding to a configuration output via the input device, the data including (i) a first portion that comprises plain text values specifying a configuration protocol for preforming an infusion therapy, and (ii) a second portion that comprises an alphanumeric code that was generated using the first portion of the data,
- generate, using an algorithm, a check code using the received first portion of the data,
- compare the check code to the received second portion of the data,
- when the check code corresponds to the second portion of the data, enable the pumping mechanism to administer the infusion therapy according to the specified configuration protocol, and
- when the check code fails to correspond to the second portion of the data, cause the display to indicate the failure of the correspondence between the check code and the second portion of the data.
