Primer bulb for contrast media delivery system

摘要

The present invention relates to a primer bulb for use with a contrast media delivery system. The contrast media delivery system is configured to facilitate the intravenous delivery of contrast media from a contrast media reservoir to a patient. The primer bulb is configured to facilitate the flow of contrast media from the contrast media reservoir. The primer bulb is compressed by the user to create a head of pressure above the contrast media in the contrast media reservoir. The head of pressure overcomes the surface tension of the contrast media while drawing contrast media into the length of tubing positioned between the primer bulb and the contrast media reservoir.
