<H3>Special Instructions</H3>  <p>Developer prepares the BCMA Programmer to provide patient and pump identification and to identify the drug and the delivery parameters. Patient demographics are provided at the Kudu test page PCD_Patient_Demographics. Specific drug and parameters are given in the Kudu test page PIV_Parameter_Tables, http://ihe-kudu.wustl.edu/na2009/connectathon_test.php.  </p>    <p>This test, out of scope of the PIV profile, is provided to minimize the risk of a failure during a Showcase. The test is successful if no system fails, and it provides some information about the behavior of the IOP/IOC/Pump system if the IOP requests an infusion rate in excess of the amount the pump is capable of providing. </p>    <p>The test provides the steps required of both the IOP and IOC, playing partner roles. IOCs are responsible for coordinating with their partners in advance of the Connectathon to assure that the IOPs and IOCs will have the required number of systems needed for testing. It is necessary to determine that the partnering systems support at least several of the same parameters, with consistent coding. For this reason, PCD recommends (and will shortly require) that parameters be coded as defined by the Rosetta Terminology Mapping project. Consult the project manager to determine if this requirement applies. </p>    <H3>Description</H3> <p>The pump should run long enough to make it obvious that some fluid was delivered. If the IOP and IOC implement the DEC PCD-01 profile, that data may be used to help document what happened. An IOP receives pharmacy information or otherwise prepares to send a message (as described in the test steps provided below) to an IOC. Messages include multiple physiologic and/or operational parameters as appropriate for the IOC and pump channel(s) supported. </p>    <p>Parameters should be sent from actual devices (preferred), simulators or, if necessary from parameter tables provided by the Project Manager (least desirable). </p>    <u>Patient Demographics </u> <p>The patient list is developed using the rules in Kudu for test PCD_Patient_Demographics found at http://ihe-kudu.wustl.edu/na2009/connectathon_test.php.  For this test, the IOP will use any two patients from the list developed with this process. </p>    <H3>Evaluation</H3> <p>Request a monitor validate performance.  Be prepared to demonstrate that the record of performance matches the record of the performance requested: the IOC received and, with support of the clinician, programmed the right pump to deliver the right drug, right amount, at the right flow rate via the right site to the right patient. If the IOP and IOC are capable of supporting the PCD-01 transactions that data may be used to help document performance. </p>
