Plenumtech Volux Volumetric Infusion Pump

What are Volumetric Infusion pump?

A volumetric infusion pump, also known as an IV pump or infusion pump, is a device used to deliver fluids, medications, or nutrients into a patients bloodstream at a controlled rate. These pumps are commonly used in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings.

Volumetric infusion pumps work by using a motorized mechanism to deliver fluids from an IV bag or container through an administration set and into the patients vein. The pump can be programmed to control the infusion rate, volume, and duration of the infusion. This allows healthcare professionals to accurately deliver fluids or medications according to the patients needs.

Some common features of volumetric infusion pumps include:

1. Flow Rate Control: The pump allows precise control over the infusion rate, typically measured in milliliters per hour (mL/hr) or drops per minute (gtts/min). This ensures the medication or fluids are delivered at a consistent and controlled rate.
2. Volume Limitation: The pump can be set to deliver a specific volume of fluid or medication. Once the programmed volume is infused, the pump will stop or trigger an alarm.
3. Alarm Systems: Infusion pumps often have built-in safety features and alarms to alert healthcare providers if there is a problem with the infusion, such as occlusion (blockage) in the IV line, low battery, or completion of the infusion.
4. Bolus Mode: Some pumps have a bolus mode that allows for the rapid delivery of a larger volume of fluid or medication over a short period. This is often used for emergency situations or when a higher dose is required.
