Abstract:
An infusion pump uses an improved shuttle mechanism to more reliably pump liquids in low volumes for medical and other purposes. The improved shuttle uses linear translation and wider, symmetric jaws to grasp infusate tubing and pump liquid infusate through the tubing. Adjustment of the linear motion allows a user to also adjust a pumping volume of the infusion pump. Other shuttles with wider jaws may also pump infusate using a rotary motion. In addition, more than one shuttle, such as two or three shuttles, may be used to approximate continuous pumping. A series of several smaller linear shuttles with sequential actuation may be used as a linear peristaltic pump for general peristaltic pump applications.

Abstract:
A system and method for automatically delivering an infusate to a patient is disclosed. The system includes an infusion set and an infusion device. A signaling component disposed on an infusion set component identifies an administration protocol for the infusion set. A detection device operatively connected to the infusion device detects the signaling component and identifies the administration protocol. The infusion device is then configured to operate according to the administration protocol.
Abstract:
Se describen un sistema y metodo para suministrar automaticamente un insuflado a un paciente. El sistema incluye un juego de infusion y un dispositivo de infusion. Un componente de senalizacion dispuesto en el componente del juego de infusion identifica un protocolo de administracion para el juego de infusion. Un dispositivo de deteccion, conectado operativamente con el dispositivo de infusion detecta el componente de senalizacion e identifica el protocolo de administracion. El dispositivo de infusion entonces se configura para operar de conformidad con el protocolo de administracion.
