MULTI-DOSE SYRINGE DRIVER

摘要

A syringe driver device is able to effect the controlled, parenteral infusion of a medical fluid using an available disposable syringe. The driver device includes a frame (12) having a movable carriage (14), which houses a force applying element mounted thereto. A disposable syringe (16) mounts upon the frame and a lengthy micro-bore tubing (18) attaches to the outlet tip (22) of the syringe. As a force is applied to the syringe plunger (24), fluid is expelled from the syringe, but its flow rate is dependent upon the diameter of the micro-bore tubing. The driver device enables the delivery of multiple, sequential doses of fluid.
