Which statement indicates a misunderstanding regarding the use of electronic infusion devices?

The statement that indicates a misunderstanding regarding the use of electronic infusion devices is that monitoring infusion rates is unnecessary when using such devices. This is incorrect because, although electronic infusion devices are designed to regulate flow rates accurately, constant monitoring is crucial for ensuring patient safety and effective treatment. Even with electronic devices, factors such as occlusions, air bubbles, or mechanical issues can arise, potentially leading to discrepancies between the intended and actual flow rate. Therefore, nurses must remain vigilant and regularly check the device's performance and the patient’s response to the IV therapy to identify any issues promptly. Regular monitoring is an essential part of maintaining safe and effective IV fluid administration, which can never be fully automated or assumed to be error-free.
