## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: PVC tubing (8'), nylon connectors, Delrin syringe head, Terumo 35cc syringe, Gelman 0.2um filter. Energy source: Pneumatic (external system). Sterilization: ETO (AAMI Overkill Method). Single-use.

## Regulatory Identification

An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.
