Description of Event or Problem · 1
GLUCOSTABILIZER PRODUCES EXTREMELY HIGH DOSES WHEN ACCURATE GLUCOSE LEVELS ARE ENTERED. WORK AROUND IN INSTRUCTIONS TO NOT ENTER DOSES OVER 500-600, BUT STAFF ENTERED ACCURATE DOSE, RESULTING IN DRIP RATE OVER 17 UNITS/HR. THERE SHOULD BE A SAFEGUARD IN THE PROGRAM SO ACCURATE PT INFO DOESN'T RESULT IN UNSAFE DOSE ERRORS. WE HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM REPEATEDLY, WHICH CAN RESULT IN UNSAFE RATES OF DECLINE.
