35.3.2 Checking the Titration Table
The titration table shows information on the currently used drugs. Use the titration table to see what dose of a
drug your patient will receive at different infusion rates. To access the titration table, follow this procedure:
1. Access drug calculator by either of the following ways:
â—† Select the Calculations quick key.
◆ Select the Main Menu quick key → from the Calculations column select Drug.
2. Select the Titration Table tab.
3. Select Dose Type to set the type of dose unit in the titration table.
4. Select Interval to set the interval between two adjacent titration table items.
You can select how to display the titration table:
â– Dose: the titration table is listed in the sequence of increased drug dose.
â– Infusion Rate: the titration table is listed in the sequence of increased infusion rate. Normally the
resolution of the infusion rate is one (1). By selecting Exact Rate the resolution of the infusion rate can
reach 0.01 so that you can display the infusion rate more accurately.
