Autolock
Entering Security Codes
The autolock feature reduces the chance of unauthorized pump programming. When the keypad is unlocked with a security code and left unlocked, the software automatically locks the keypad. When the pump is on the home screen, the autolock feature takes effect 30 seconds after the last key press. Autolock takes longer on programming or task screens when you typically need more time to perform an action. Depending on which screen was on the pump last, and if the pump is not alarming, it can take up to four minutes after the last key press before the pump reverts to the home screen and autolocks immediately. When the pump is alarming, autolock does not take effect.
Press ▲ or ▼ to scroll to the correct digit. Press Select or Accept Value to advance to the next digit. Once the complete code has been entered, press Select or Accept Value.
Note: The keypad can be re-locked by pushing the right soft key twice from the home screen or once from the Tasks or Advanced Tasks menu. As a recommended safety precaution, always manually lock the pump using this feature.

Clinician Guide
Giving a Clinician Bolus
Start a PCA Dose
A clinician bolus may be delivered only when the pump is running. It allows delivery of a specific amount of drug, such as a loading dose. A clinician bolus cannot be started while a PCA dose is in progress. The clinician bolus increases the given amount, but does not add to the dose counters or to the delivery limit. A clinician bolus may be stopped in progress.
If a PCA dose is programmed, the patient may start a PCA dose while the pump is running. The amount delivered is added to the amount provided by the continuous rate. Each time the patient requests a PCA dose, the pump automatically adds it to the Given and PCA Dose Counters report.
Note: The maximum clinician bolus may be limited by the settings in the protocol, which is determined by the CADD®-Solis system administrator.
The remote dose cord can be attached to the pump and provided to the patient as an alternative to pushing the PCA dose key when requesting a PCA dose. The LED on the remote dose cord indicates PCA dose status:
To start a clinician bolus:
•
Off: A PCA dose is not available
1. Make sure the pump is running
•
Flashing: A PCA dose is available
2. From the View Advanced Tasks menu, press ▲ or ▼ to highlight Give Clinician Bolus and press Select
•
On: A PCA dose has been requested and delivery has started
3. Unlock the keypad 4. Press ▲ or ▼ to change the value of the clinician bolus. Select Deliver 5. If you enter a value outside the soft limit, a screen appears asking you to confirm the soft limit override. Select Confirm to deliver the bolus 6. The screen shows the decreasing amount as the bolus is delivered. You may stop the bolus at any time by selecting Stop Bolus
Notes: •
A PCA dose cannot be started while another PCA dose or a clinician bolus is in progress
•
The PCA dose key on the pump is inactive when the remote dose cord is connected to the pump
•
If the display has automatically blanked, pressing the PCA dose key turns the display back on and delivers a PCA dose, if available

Stopping a Clinician Bolus or PCA Dose To Stop a Clinician Bolus: While the clinician bolus is delivering, the Clinician Bolus screen appears on the pump and shows the decreasing amount of the bolus remaining to be delivered. You may stop the clinician bolus from the screen by selecting Stop Bolus.
Programming Screens •
Continuous Rate The desired continuous rate of medication delivery. Rates above 250 mL/hr require a CADD® high volume administration set
•
KVO Rate The KVO or “keep vein open” rate is optional. It allows the delivery of a minimal amount of drug to help maintain catheter patency. If a KVO rate is programmed, it will only be active if a delayed start is programmed. The pump will infuse at the KVO rate until the programmed infusion begins
•

Clinician Guide
INTERMITTENT DELIVERY MODE
Programming Screens
Intermittent delivery allows the infusion of a specific volume of drug at a regular, programmed interval and over a specified duration. A dose may be repeated in a cycle up to 96 hours.
•
Dose Volume The volume of the dose cannot be programmed to a value that would cause the rate of delivery for the programmed dose duration to exceed the dose rate maximum of 500 mL/hr. Therefore, programming the dose volume may result in the automatic lengthening of the dose duration to accommodate the maximum dose rate
•
Dose Duration The length of time required to deliver the dose. The dose duration cannot be programmed to a value that would cause the rate of delivery for the programmed dose volume to exceed the maximum dose rate of 500 mL/hr
•
Dose Cycle The time from the start of one dose to the start of the next dose. The programmable values for the dose cycle are dependent on the dose duration. There must be at least five minutes between the end of one dose and the start of the next dose. Therefore, the minimum programmable cycle is the dose duration plus five minutes
Home Screen The delivery mode and status of the infusion are indicated on the home screen with messages appearing in text, a graphic in a shape unique to the therapy, and with the colors green, red, and grey. Examples specific to the intermittent delivery mode are: •
The pump is running with a manually programmed next dose start time
•
The pump is running and delivering a dose
•
The pump is stopped between doses while at the KVO rate
CADD®-Solis VIP Pump
p. 19
•
Dose Rate This setting is for review only and shows the rate at which the dose is delivered based on the programmed dose volume and dose duration. The maximum allowable rate is 500 mL/hr. Rates above 250 mL/ hr require a CADD® high volume administration set
•
Next Dose The time the next dose is scheduled to begin. The pump must be running on the selected date and time in order for the dose to begin. The next dose time can be programmed at any time to delay the start of the next dose, but if a dose is in progress, this cancels the remainder of the dose
•
KVO Rate The KVO or “keep vein open” rate is optional. It allows the delivery of a minimal amount of drug to help maintain catheter patency. The KVO rate is active between doses or until a dose begins if the next dose start time has been set to a value other than “immediate”
•
Reservoir Volume The volume of fluid contained in the reservoir. The reservoir volume value decreases as the pump is primed or delivers fluid
p. 20
•
Stopping the Pump During an Infusion Stopping the pump between doses does not affect the start time of subsequent doses. Stopping the pump while a dose is in progress shifts all subsequent doses by the amount of time the pump is stopped
•
Resuming the Dose To resume delivery of a dose stopped in progress, simply restart the pump by pressing stop/start
•
Resetting the Cycle To reset the cycle, stop the pump between doses, and reprogram the next dose start time. When a dose is stopped in progress, the “Interrupted” screen appears. To cancel the current dose and reset the cycle, reprogram the next dose start time through the Tasks menu. The next cycle will start at the time you select
