Through analyzing the logged activity data of these devices, valuable insights for dose titration practices and risks during administration of high-alert continuous infusions can be determined.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Data were extracted from the Bainbridge Health Infusion Pump Network for the period of January through December 2022.

The 9 medications identified for review were dexmedetomidine, dobutamine, fentanyl, heparin, insulin, midazolam, norepinephrine, propofol, and vasopressin. Data for 1% of infusions were suggestive of 10-fold dose programming errors, 1% of infusions exceeded suggested maximum doses, and infusions of 4 out of the 9 medications were often titrated too quickly.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This first-of-its-kind data analysis identified safety gaps that can help establish greater standardization of appropriate titration parameters for high-alert medications.
