Benefits of technology

[0076] Furthermore, the pump device may be a syringe, and the method may include actuating the fluid control device to isolate the syringe

Problems solved by technology

Manual sources of fluid pressure and flow used in medical applications such as syringes and manifolds thus typically require operator effort that provides feedback of the fluid pressure/flow generated to the operator.
The feedback is desirable, but the operator effort often leads to fatigue.
However, compliance in the system components, for example, expansion of the syringe, tubing, and other components under pressure, using such a manifold system can lead to

Embodiment Construction

[0147] In one aspect, the present invention provides an energy / signal source to generate fluid pressure / flow while also providing to the user tactile and / or audible feedback of the fluid pressure generated, allowing the user to modulate the fluid pressure / flow. The powered injection system of the present invention is capable of providing, for example, both precise low-flow / low-pressure fluid delivery for powered coronary injections and high-flow / high-pressure fluid delivery for ventricle injections.

[0148]FIG. 2 illustrates one embodiment of the present invention in which injector system 10 is preferably divided into two sections: a multi-patient section or set A and a per-patient disposable section or set B. Section or set A and section or set B are preferably separated and removably coupled into fluid connection by a high-pressure connector or by a high-pressure, “aseptic” connector 20 such as the septum connector disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 6,096,011, assigned to the assignee of t...

Abstract

The mobile fluid delivery system includes a mobile pedestal and a fluid delivery superstructure detachably connected to the pedestal. The fluid delivery superstructure includes a pump device and a fluid control device. A fluid path set operatively associates the pump device with the fluid control device. The superstructure is further adapted to detachably connect to a patient examination platform. A rail mount is used to provide the interface between the superstructure and the patient examination platform. The rail mount attaches to a rail of the patient examination platform and includes a main body defining an elongated recess for engaging the rail of the patient examination platform. The superstructure detachably connects to the main body. Locking devices are used to secure the rail mount to the patient examination platform and the superstructure to the rail mount. A spacer may be inserted into the elongated recess to accommodate different sized rails.
