In-Line Pressure Monitoring
The infusion set pressure sensing disc enables the measurement of in-line pressure
and in conjunction with trending graphs, can support early clinical assessment and
intervention which may assist in reducing the risk of IV complications.
The downstream occlusion alarm limit set through the Auto pressure or manual
functions can assist in optimizing the time to alarm.
Despite the benefits provided by early detection of occlusions and
reduced time to alarm, the Pump is not designed to provide protection
or detection of extravasation nor infiltration, therefore, the clinician,
while monitoring the pressure trend graphs, must also check the
infusion site on a regular basis and follow hospital protocols when IV
complications occurs.
