1. A medication management system for configuring a dose back calculation setting, the system comprising:
- a medication management unit having a processing unit and a storage medium coupled to the processing unit, the storage medium being non-transitory and containing programming code executed by the processing unit to;
provide a master infuser setup of a drug library at the medication management unit;
receive a default Dose-Back Calculation setting for the master infuser setup at a user interface of the medication management unit;
update the drug library with the default Dose-Back Calculation setting; and
transmit the updated drug library; and
a programmable medical device for performing an infusion in electronic communication with the medication management unit, the medical device having a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory being non-transitory and containing programming code to;
receive the updated drug library at the medical device;
receive a drug selection input at a user interface of the medical device;
determine the default Dose-Back Calculation setting from the updated drug library; and
operate the medical device in accordance with the determined default Dose-Back Calculation setting,wherein the default Dose-Back Calculation setting controls when volumetric rate for the infusion cannot be entered at the medical device before dose rate for the infusion.

4. A medication management system for configuring a dose back calculation setting, the system comprising:
-
a medication management unit having a processing unit and a storage medium coupled to the processing unit, the storage medium being non-transitory and containing programming code executed by the processing unit to; configure a default Dose-Back Calculation setting in a drug library from a user interface of the medication management unit, the default Dose-Back Calculation setting having an ENABLED selection and a DISABLED selection; update the drug library with one of the ENABLED selection and the DISABLED selection for the default Dose-Back Calculation setting in the drug library; and transmit the updated drug library; a programmable medical device for performing an infusion in electronic communication with and physically separate from the medication management unit, the medical device having a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory being non-transitory and containing programming code to; receive the updated drug library at the medical device; determine the default Dose-Back Calculation setting from the drug library; receive a rate value for volumetric rate for the infusion at a user interface of the medical device when the determined default Dose-Back Calculation setting is the ENABLED selection; and calculate a dose value for dose rate for the infusion based on the received rate value, wherein the default Dose-Back Calculation setting controls when the volumetric rate for the infusion cannot be entered at the medical device before the dose rate for the infusion. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)

7. A medication management system for configuring a dose back calculation setting, the system comprising:
-
a medication management unit having a processing unit and a storage medium coupled to the processing unit, the storage medium being non-transitory and containing programming code executed by the processing unit to; configure a default Dose-Back Calculation setting in a drug library from a user interface of the medication management unit, the default Dose-Back Calculation setting having an ENABLED selection and a DISABLED selection; update the drug library with one of the ENABLED selection and the DISABLED selection for the default Dose-Back Calculation setting in the drug library; and transmit the updated drug library; a programmable medical device for performing an infusion in electronic communication with and physically separate from the medication management unit, the medical device having a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, the memory being non-transitory and containing programming code to; receive the updated drug library at the medical device; determine the default Dose-Back Calculation setting from the drug library; and enable a dose field for entry of dose rate for the infusion and a rate field for entry of volumetric rate for the infusion on a user interface of the medical device when the determined default Dose-Back Calculation setting is the ENABLED selection, wherein the default Dose-Back Calculation setting controls when the volumetric rate for the infusion cannot be entered at the medical device before the dose rate for the infusion. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)
