ICU Medical Plum 360 IV Pump Training

[@stephcrn]

I too found this video extremely helpful. I get a lot of "distal occlusion" error alarms with this pump. Thanks again.

[@angelit161]

Hey How do you address those alarms? Do you just turn them off?

[@caseylee1553]

Thank you. After listening to my wife’s go off for 2 hrs waiting on a nurse to come in this helped me turn off her iron and start back the other stuff ;-)

[@lizbarrett3248]

You really shouldn’t do that. It could be very dangerous and is technically illegal.

[@janetmickle6634]

Excellent video!!! I’ve always used the Alaris pump. This was extremely helpful! Thanks much!! 💜

[@MedOneGroup]

Glad it was helpful!

Appreciate this training, but I have to say I absolutely hate these pumps. They claim to have fewer air in line alarms, but this is absolutely not true. These stupid pumps are alarming constantly. It’s also ridiculous how cumbersome these pumps are. At max you can have 2 medications running through the pump at a time. If either of those medications is titratable though it makes it unsafe to have any other infusions going with it except for maybe a maintenance IVF. When you have sick icu patients on as many as 10-20 drips (this is not an exaggeration I have actually cared for a patient on 16+ drips) you have to have so many pumps they absolutely clutter up the bedside space. Not to mention if you have to transport your patient. You’ll need at least 2-3 other hands to help you push your IV poles down the hall. I can appreciate the safety of these pumps, but overall I feel it is a huge step back in IV therapy for bedside nursing.

totally agree

[@branbeelotus]

They are awful.

[@NurseGringo]

I wholeheartedly agree! I remember my first encounter with this troublesome machine like it was yesterday. I almost cried because I spent so much time trying to figure it out. Back then, I was a traveling nurse, and this device wasn't even part of my orientation. I had a seriously ill patient with 10 IV drips, and this machine just ate up so much of my time. That's why I have a soft spot for the Braun Space Infusion and Alaris machines - they're so much easier to work with.

By experience, it is always good to have a little amount of fluids left in the chamber when you know it’s going to complete the infusion soon in A or B. When you leave too long when the volume has finished, it’s the air that creates space somewhere in the tubings that cause problem no matter how many times you fix it like prime it even manually, you have to change the whole tubing set to make it work.

Excellent instructor

[@rhondabooboo2791]

Love these pumps!

[@annholzer3104]

Excellent video for this New Grad. I wish you also mentioned how to put it in standby mode. That still confuses me.

[@jeangray6863]

Excellent demonstration and detailed explanation 👌 👍 👏

[@ChurroWaffles]

So if what if you have the patient on multiple iv drugs? Like a Septic patient on numerous pressors? Do you have to have one unit for each medication?

[@lizbarrett3248]

They have those giant triple pumps which is basically the three separate units in one box.

[@jlmcgrot]

You keep adding pumps. This is basically a one channel pump with Y-side for channel B. Drugs have to be compatible since it’s the same tubing. Critical care units have specialty poles so they can just keep stacking pumps. It’s dumb, really.

[@aljyjose2997]

Thank you somuch for this presentation, I was struggling with it.

You're welcome! Make sure to subscribe as we will post new equipment training videos in the upocming year!

[@Reyna_Aleese]

How do you pause these pumps if patient needs to use bathroom?

[@cutiebellacat4720]

This my concer also. Coz i just stop the infusion, when im returning it, it will alarm after i think mins after connecting it to patient’s heplock.

[@clarrisaneal2706]

You can press the “stop” button and the “standby” option will display on the screen. Press standby and it will ask again, “are you sure you want to put line A/B in standby?” Press yes and it will be set to standby. When the pt returns simply press “start”, again it will ask if you are sure you want to start line A/B, press yes again.
