FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEMS, FLUID DELIVERY DEVICES, AND METHOD FOR DELIVERY OF HAZARDOUS FLUIDS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system for injecting a patient including a container enclosing a hazardous pharmaceutical; a first pump to deliver a hazardous pharmaceutical to the patient; and a fluid path operably connected to the first pump, the container, and the patient.

SOLUTION: The patient has a catheter 31 inserted via a femoral approach into the patient's heart. The catheter 31 is connected to a manifold 30 to enable injection of various fluids. A syringe 10 is filled with contrast medium from a line 20 and then injected. The syringe 10 is operated by a mechanical injector 40 including a piston 40a that pushes or pulls on the syringe plunger extension, thereby moving the fluid in and out of the syringe 10.
