Problems solved by technology

Although a program stored in a central control device predetermines the delivery rates of the individual infusion pumps, the infusion pumps are not coordinated with each other in terms of their infusion rates or when infusions are delivered as a function of their actual values

Embodiment Construction

[0030] figure 1 It is a simplified diagram showing the arrangement of the infusion pump device in an embodiment of the present invention. The infusion pump device 1 includes infusion pumps 2-10, and the infusion pumps 5-10 are syringe pumps.

[0031] The infusion pump is arranged on the common column 11 of the infusion pump bracket. The individual infusion pumps 2-10 can be spatially arranged on the bracket or more or less freely arranged on some other bracket designs. If the individual infusion pumps are connected by a data cable, the data cable can be arranged on the bracket. Column 11. This connection can be made in series and star to transmit control data to other infusion pumps in all cases.

[0032] Instead of a cable connection, the data can advantageously be sent wirelessly. This can be done, for example, by modulated ultrasonic waves, modulated light waves (such as IrDa) or by radio waves (such as Bluetooth).

[0033] Instead of multiple individual control units arrange...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for controlling several infusion pumps (2-10), a respective infusion substance being allocated to each infusion pump (2-10). Said infusion substance is fed to a living thing as an infusion with a predeterminable infusion rate, over a predeterminable assigned period. The infusion pumps (2-10) automatically exchange control data with each other in order to co-ordinate the activation and deactivation times of the different infusions.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and a device for controlling a plurality of infusion pumps, whereby each infusion pump has an infusion substance allocated to it, and the infusion substance is predeterminable within a predetermined time allocated to it. The infusion rate is supplied to the organism as an infusion, as described in the preamble of patent claims 1 and 14. Background technique [0002] In hospitals and other medical places, drugs and / or medicaments, vitamins, nutrients, anesthetics, enzymes, metabolic products, etc. are often supplied to emergency patients by intravenous injection through the so-called infusion pump, that is, they are injected directly Into the blood, injected into the body tissues, digestive tract, respiratory system, and injected into the mucous membrane or skin. Infusion pumps of two designs are basically available on the market. The first is a syringe pump, which moves the injection plunger at a controlled forward ...
