An infusion pump is configured to provide one or more context cues to a user while the user programs the infusion pump to deliver an infusion therapy. In some embodiments, the infusion pump includes a display configured to display a keypad and to receive input from a user, a processor in communication with the display, and a memory in communication with the processor. The memory stores instructions that cause a keypad sequence monitor to receive context parameters, the context parameters corresponding to a drug selection, a drug concentration selection, or a clinical care area in which the drug is to be infused. The keypad sequence monitor accesses a drug library using the context parameter to determine a valid parameter range corresponding to a range of values between lower and upper soft limit values stored in the drug library. The keypad sequence monitor is further configured to receive an treatment parameter value from the user and display one or more context cues upon determining that the received treatment parameter value is outside of a valid treatment parameter range, but would be within a valid treatment parameter range if one of the context parameters were changed. |
