<p>A fluid medication pump (1) comprises a reservoir (2) filled with fluid medication. The medication is continuously discharged over an extended period into the patient. The continuous discharge is obtained by a shrink polymer wall for the reservoir (2) which is powered by a shrink polymer. In the principal embodiment the device pumps from a reservoir (2) which is surgically implanted into the patient. A reservoir (2) depletion warning for surgically implanted pumps which creates a physiological indicator is also taught.</p> |
