Smart syringe pumps for drug infusion during dental intravenous sedation
Dentists often sedate patients in order to reduce their dental phobia and stress during dental treatment. Sedatives are administered through various routes such as oral, inhalation, and intravenous routes. Intravenous administration has the advantage of rapid onset of action, predictable duration of action, and easy titration. Typically, midazolam, propofol or dexmedetomidine are used as intrav...
متن کاملInfuShield: a shielded enclosure for administering therapeutic radioisotope treatments using standard syringe pumps
The administration of radionuclide therapies presents significant radiation protection challenges. The aim of this work was to develop a delivery system for intravenous radioisotope therapies to substantially moderate radiation exposures to staff and operators. A novel device (InfuShield) was designed and tested before being used clinically. The device consists of a shielded enclosure which con...
متن کاملDownward movement of syringe pumps reduces syringe output.
We studied how lowering a syringe pump and changing the outflow pressure could affect syringe pump output. We experimentally reduced the height of three different syringe pump systems by 80 cm (adult setting) or 130 cm (neonatal setting), as can happen clinically, using five flow rates. We measured the time of backward flow, no flow and the total time without flow. An exponential negative corre...
متن کاملQualitative Application of Operation and Support Hazard Analysis for Syringe Infusion Pumps
In this paper, we provide a qualitative analysis with an experimental viewpoint for the Operation and Support Hazard Analysis O&SHA process applied to syringe infusion pumps as a cheap and accurate way of contributing with the mitigation of the safety problem in these devices. The proposed model takes as quality criteria the compliance within safety requirements defined by the Foods and Drugs A...
متن کاملDisposable infusion pumps.
PURPOSE The properties, performance, and applications of nonelectric disposable infusion pumps are reviewed. SUMMARY All nonelectric disposable infusion pumps exploit the same physical principle: mechanical restriction within the flow path determines the speed of pressurized fluid. The pressure generated by disposable pumps on fluid is 250-600 mm Hg, compared with 5-1200 mm Hg of pressure for...
