Notify meIn development · not installable yet

What it is

A patient-controlled analgesia pump’s settings, the number of demands made against the number delivered, and any side effect are logged through the post-operative course, so an unusually high demand rate or a sedation score creeping up is visible to the ward before it becomes a respiratory event.

Who uses it: Built for: Every specialty
Reads: PCA pump settings, nursing observations
Writes: PCA usage log, side effect records
Never: It does not programme the PCA pump — nursing or anaesthesia staff do; the app logs settings and use against safety thresholds.
Access: Only people whose role includes it — the clinic owner decides who
Your data: Full PHI. Hosted in Boston, United States. On uninstall: Nothing to remove yet — this app is in development.

Rules it keeps

What it does not do, by design. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.

It does not programme the PCA pump — nursing or anaesthesia staff do; the app logs settings and use against safety thresholds.
