The Medfusion 3500 Syringe Pump is a small infusion pump that is used to slowly deliver a small amount of fluid over a specified period of time. Infusion pumps are used clinically and in the research setting. These devices may be programmed to administer tenths of milliliters every minute, patient-controlled analgesia and fluids whose volumes differ with the times of day.
Automating these difficult dosing regimes frees up nursing time for other aspects of patient care in a cost-effective manner. This is especially useful in neonatal intensive care units, where drug dosages are impractically small and difficult to administer manually. Using an automated system means the highly trained nursing staff can spend more time with patients, their parents and other family members.
Medfusion syringe pumps are easy to customize, smart, safe, adaptable and flexible. They are capable of delivering drugs at high, controlled pressures either directly into the spinal cord, as in prenatal anesthesia, or subcutaneously. Because they are pre-programmed, the potential for an error in dosage is almost completely eliminated.
The advantage of delivering drugs underneath the skin means you have a virtually blank canvas. This saves wear and tear on the patient when numerous injection sites are necessary. The only drawback is that edema can interfere with the action of certain drugs.
Parameters that can be manipulated for custom usage include formulation, latex-free, lipid resistant or needle-less configurations. The software that comes with the 3500 has software designed specifically to eradicate drug errors within programmable dosage limits. Other integrated safety features include rapid alarm response and displaying trends in pressure.
The Medfusion 3500 syringe pump is the latest model in the product line. Administering medication to patients using an automated system minimizes the potential for error and optimizes nursing time. Infusion syringes are used in the clinical setting as well as in research.
