Efficacy evaluation of syringe pump developed for continuous drug infusion
BACKGROUND In dental intravenous sedation, continuous intravenous infusion of a low-dose drug requires an infusion pump such as a syringe pump. To develop a new syringe pump for clinical use, the functions of the pump must meet certain international standards. Various safety and efficacy tests must be performed on the syringe pump, as stipulated by these standards, and an approval must be recei...
متن کاملUser preference for a portable syringe pump for iloprost infusion
PURPOSE Administration of intravenous iloprost - a first-line European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)-recommended choice for the treatment of scleroderma (SSc)-related digital vasculopathy - requires repeated treatment cycles of 6 hours per day in a hospital setting. During the infusion, patient mobility is considerably restricted due to the size and fixity of traditional syringe pumps. The ...
متن کاملPerformance of a linear peristaltic infusion pump during red blood cells administration and the influence of infusion rates
Introduction Even with the technological development of infusion pumps, pediatric intensive care nurses are resistant to administer red blood cells (RBC) by linear peristaltic infusion pumps due to the supposed risk of cells damage, despite the need of accuracy in low flow rates. Patient safety can be compromised both by RBC quality decrease due to the pumping mechanism, as well as, by possible...
متن کاملEvaluation of the FASTSTART mode for reducing start-up delay in syringe pump infusion systems.
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the IVAC P7000 FASTSTART mode with regard to start-up performance in a 50-ml infusion syringe at a flow rate of 1 ml.h-1. METHODS The time from depression of the start button to first fluid flow (T1) and to establishment of a pre-set flow rate (T2) were gravimetrically recorded with and without FASTSTART and with and without priming of the infusi...
متن کاملUnremarkable errors: low-level disturbances in infusion pump use
In this paper we describe results from an exploratory study observing infusion pump use in practice. From 31 observations of pump programming we note 10 low-level disturbances, which we conceptualise in terms of unremarkable error. This data supports a view that well performing systems cope with error as part of their normal work. Users are able to recover from error and are resilient to perfor...
