An updated Drug Library has been sent to the PLUM 360 infusion pumps. The following updates/additions have been made:

  1. Additions: Vancomycin continuous infusion, Oxacillin continuous infusion, Sotrovimab
  2. Limit/rate adjustments: Labetalol drip
  3. Bamlanivimab/etesevimab can now be given as piggyback with a NS flush no longer concurrent only
  4. IF AT ANYTIME A HARD SAFETY LIMIT NEEDS TO BE OVERRIDDEN/WORKED AROUND THIS IS A SITUATION THAT NEEDS TO BE ESCALATED TO A MANAGER/DIRECTOR/SUPERVISOR AND PHARMACY SO THAT A REVIEW OF THE CASE AND DRUG LIBRARY CAN BE PERFORMED
    1. This above verbiage will be added to the IV pump policy.
    2. Please disseminate to staff so that we can work  through any potential safety/drug dosing/guideline issues real time

To get the current drug library onto the pumps they need to be power cycled:

  • If the pumps are already on they should have downloaded the drug library. When you turn the pumps off (when finished using them) the drug library should automatically install
    • Installation process takes roughly 2 minutes 30 seconds
  • If you have a par of pumps on your floor and need to power cycle them. This is what Agiliti will do with the pumps they have on hand.
    • Turn the pump on->Let it sit for a few minutes->then power down->you will hear a beep then see this screen

The updated drug library version will appear as follows once the pump is powered back on:
