PATIENT CARE SYSTEM FOR CRITICAL MEDICATIONS

Abstract: a patient care system has a medical pump for delivering a medicine to a patient, and a processor in communication with the pump. the pump is configured to receive a first input on whether the medicine is a critical medicine, and a second input on a trigger condition that triggers a fail-operate mode for the critical medicine. the processor controls the medical pump to operate in the fail-operate mode, where the fail-operate mode continues delivery of the critical medicine when the trigger condition is triggered.
