Although intended to ensure full medication delivery, these strategies introduce safety risks, increase alert burden, and heighten cognitive load. In contrast, cassette-based large-volume smart pumps use valve-controlled fluid delivery, eliminating the need for head-height differential and reducing the potential for human error.
