Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassA61M 005/16AbstractA drug infusion system includes a plurality of infusion pump modules and a central management unit interconnected with the infusion pump modules to provide centralized control. The central management unit includes a touch screen for communicating with a user, the touch screen including an arrangement for enabling the user to initiate the display of a menu of infusion-rate-related parameters and selectively assign values for any of the parameters in the menu while an infusion rate value is automatically calculated according to the values so assigned. One embodiment enables temporary transfer from a titrate screen to a calculator screen with which the values are assigned, and a separate set of values is preserved for each infusion pump module.Field of SearchBy self-acting means or condition responsive sensorMaterial flow varying means controlled by condition responsive sensor Sensor responsive to body condition Sensor controls pump, motor, or pressure driven means Means for intermixing liquid with solid or different liquid Treating material introduced directly into liquid stream path Material flow to or from body terminated by self-acting means | |
