What is the best way visualizing drug administration by infusion pumps of a patient cohort taking into account time, drug, concentration, dose.
The abstraction should be made for one drug but with different start-stop times, different speed, different concentrations.
Who is able to answer this question?
Thanks
Imagine 10 patients receiving noradrenaline by infusion pump.
Dimensions are: pump is running or not; the rate is X; the concentration of the drug is Y. All this should be visualized in a time chart
If I understand your question correctly I would run some simulations of the different conditions to show how I expected the different profiles would look. The following was done for a simple 1 compartmental model in Phoenix WinNonlin in a couple of minutes.

I'm not quite sure what you want to do other than recording the infusion rate displayed by the pump and the concentration of drug in the syringe. If you want to check the accuracy of your pump at different rates etc, the standard method is to use a calibrated electronic balance to measure the weight of drug delivered over time and convert to volumetric delivery over time with information on the density of the material infused.
