New PCA OrderOn Tuesday, July 19, 2022, Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) ordering will convert from Adult or PED to weight-based for Fentanyl, Hydromorphone, and Morphine for the Jackson campus only. In addition, an order for a 'Clinician bolus from PCA syringe' will be available as an individual order. PCAs will still be ordered from the Panels section of Manage Orders: ![](https://www.umc.edu/DIS-Newsletters/images/images_2022/july_images_2022/order sets and panel.png)
The order for the clinician bolus from PCA syringe will be found in the Medications section of Manage Orders. All order sets have been updated with the new weight-based panels. The clinician bolus will have to be ordered separately as a once order. This will allow the provider to order additional pain medication when needed. ![](https://www.umc.edu/DIS-Newsletters/images/images_2022/july_images_2022/medications.png)
