Good choice for care areas with many infusions per patient, as well as facilities that want a bar-code scanner on the pump and a removable battery.
Performs adequately in some areas, but DERS functionality is limited, and wireless networking is not provided. In U.S., FDA has ordered that all Colleague pumps be removed from the market and destroyed by July 2012 due to a long-standing failure to correct problems with the pumps. Worldwide, except USA No Yes
Good choice for facilities that want to standardize on one platform for many infusion modes and that want a bar-code scanner on the pump.
Good choice for care areas with Good choice for facilities that want many IV push and piggyback to standardize on one server for deliveries but few bolus doses, as large-volume and PCA pumps. well as facilities that want to standardize on one server for largevolume and PCA pumps.
