The patient should be instructed not to let anyone else push the PCA pain button to avoid overdosage.One family member or significant other can be the patient's primary pain manager and is allowed to push the PCA button.The patient should not wait until the pain becomes severe to push the PCA button.The PCA will have preset time limitations to determine how frequently the patient will receive a dose of pain medication no matter how often the button is pushed.The PCA will not continue to administer medication until the pain is completely relieved.
