Abstract

There are no two ways about it: smart infusion pumps have transformed the dosage delivery system by reducing errors and improving patient care. However, clinicians and nurses are crucial in making critical decisions, monitoring the systems, and managing drug libraries.

It is vital that healthcare professionals have the most comprehensive expert guidance possible. ASHP's newly updated Smart Infusion Pumps: Implementation,Management, and Drug Libraries, Second Edition puts it all at your fingertips.

Written by Pamela K. Phelps, with contributions from 14 other experts, it is the core handbook for selecting, implementing, and operating this essential medical technology, covering every aspect of infusion pump management, including guidance for their growing use in patient home care.

Updated and expanded, with practice tips, charts, checklists, scenarios, and more, the second edition details procedures that ensure efficiency, effectiveness, and patient safety.

As the essential guide for anybody who works with smart infusion pumps, you'll want to have one for each member of your team.
