Reported risk: Baxter has identified a discrepancy between the loading/bolus default dose settings in the master drug library ( MDL ) version 8.0 and the values displayed on the pump during loading/bolus dose programming. When a drug's loading dose or bolus dose is configured in the MDL with a default starting time value in seconds, the loading dose or bolus dose setup screen on the pump will display the time value rounded to the nearest integer in minutes. When this occurs, the pump will administer drugs as configured. This discrepancy is only with the default time on the setup screen, not with the amount or rate of drugs administered, as configured in the drug library.
