What are the Differences between the Infusion Pump and the Syringe Pump?
![]() 1.Infusion Pump Infusion pump is an instrument that can accurately control the number of infusion drops or the flow rate of infusion to ensure that the drug can enter the patient's body evenly, accurately and safely.At the same time, the infusion pump can also improve the efficiency and flexibility of clinical drug administration operation and reduce the nursing workload. The infusion pump is usually a mechanical or electronic control device that controls the infusion speed by acting on the infusion catheter. It is often used in situations where the amount and dosage of the infusion need to be strictly controlled, such as in the application of pressors, antiarrhythmic drugs, intravenous infusion of infants and young children, or intravenous anesthesia 2.Syringe Pump The principle of the syringe pump is to push the syringe through a mechanical device to achieve high-precision, smooth and pulsation-free liquid transmission. According to the purpose,syringe pumps can be divided into medical and non-medical, as well as laboratory micro-syringe pumps and industrial syringe pumps; According to the number of channels can be divided into single channel and multi-channel (double channel, four channel, six channel, eight channel, ten channel, etc.); According to the structure can be divided into split type and combined type, and so on. 3.Differences between the Infusion Pump and the Syringe Pump The differences between infusion pumps and injection pumps are as follows: a. Infusion pump is generally called volume pump, the main purpose is to replace the traditional gravity bottle infusion, to achieve the purpose of more and safer drug administration. Syringe pump is also known as micro infusion pump, from the name it can be roughly seen that the main purpose of the syringe pump is to supplement the volume infusion pump in the micro prescription. Because, the micro infusion pump (that is, the syringe pump) is more accurate than the general volume infusion pump when giving small doses. b. Compared with the infusion pump, the advantages of the syringe pump are: higher precision in small volume dosing, more flexible dispensing capacity, easier to solve bench placement, smaller flow rate pulsation, etc. c. Compared with the injection pump, the advantages of the infusion pump are: larger capacity, wider flow rate range, less liquid type restrictions, cheaper consumables, low drug concentration less irritating, easier to run needle alarm and infusion heating and other functions.
