Next Generation Medical Infusion Pump Case Study
ثبت نشده
چکیده
This case study summarizes the systems engineering aspects of the next-generation SymbiqTM IV (intravenous) medical pump development. SymbiqTM was developed by Hospira Inc. and documented in detail in Chapter 5 of the National Research Council book, Human-System Integration in the System Development Process. As described in the book, SymbiqTM's purpose was “to deliver liquid medications, nutrients, blood and other solutions at programmed flow rates, volumes and time intervals via intravenous and other routes to a patient, primarily for hospital use with secondary limited feature use by patients at home" (Pew 2007).

متن کاملNumerical and Economic Study of Performance of Centrifugal Pump as Turbine
In this paper, performance of centrifugal pump as turbine (PAT) is investigated numerically. Three different specific speeds are considered and three pumps are designed using diagrams from catalogues and CFturbo V.9 software. Next, models are analyzed by Ansys CFX 16 software and results are compared with those of CFturbo software. Also, a mesh study analysis for one case is performed in order ...
