Every time I finally sit to chart at 02:17, Bed 3’s IV pump picks that exact second to scream “occlusion,” and the EHR logs me out for “inactivity” — this keeps showing up like clockwork. My tip: I tap Silence, jiggle the line, quick-save the note, then sit; what tiny ritual works for you?
Ugh, 02:17 is when the AC kinks. I run the tubing over the shoulder, tape a small slack loop near the AC, and tuck a towel under the elbow — way fewer occlusion screams — and I hit Ctrl+S before I stand so the EHR doesn’t boot me for “inactivity.” Do you drop the pump a notch on the pole too, or does yours get cranky?
@bravedash nailed the AC kink; I also park the pump head a bit higher than the IV site and clip the line to the gown at mid‑forearm so flexing doesn’t torque the hub — fewer 02:17 “occlusion” serenades. Does your EHR have a quick-save hotkey you can tap as you stand up?
