    Abstract: The invention provides a pump for pumping fluid includes a tube platen, a plunger, a bias member, inlet and outlet valves, an actuator mechanism, a door having a lever and an interlock, a pressure sensor, and a processor. The plunger is configured for actuation toward and away from the infusion-tube when the tube platen is disposed opposite to the plunger. The bias member urges the plunger toward the tube platen. The inlet valve is upstream of the plunger and is configured for actuation between an occluding position and a non-occluding position. The outlet valve is downstream of the plunger and is configured for actuation between an occluding position and a non-occluding position. The actuator mechanism is configured to control the actuation of the plunger, the inlet valve and the outlet valve. The interlock is configured to mechanically engage the lever when the door is in an open position. The pressure sensor is disposed adjacent to at least one of the inlet valve, the outlet valve, and the plunger. The processor is coupled to the pressure sensor to receive a pressure signal from the pressure sensor. The inlet valve, the outlet valve, and the plunger are configured to pump fluid in a plurality of cycles, each cycle having a trough pressure level and a peak pressure level. By measuring variance in pressure levels, the pump is able to determine the presence of downstream occlusion which prevents or restricts pumping of the fluid.
