  • Publication number: 20230338648
    Abstract: A device for administering a medical liquid and a method for operating the device. The device includes a main part having a receiving region and a drive. The receiving region can receive a liquid-containing hollow body. The drive can act on the hollow body such that liquid in the hollow body is conveyed. A control unit controls the drive. A cover is movably connected to the main part and covers the exterior of the receiving region in a closed position. The cover has a manually blockable input unit for inputting commands. In the closed position of the cover, a manual input can be entered on the input unit. A sensor detects whether the cover is in the closed position. The control unit ensures that the input unit is blocked when the sensor detects that the cover is open. Another device features a lockable cover.

  • Publication number: 20230201557
    Abstract: A clamping module of or for a medical pump, and a method for identifying a hose clamp of a disposable infusion article insertable into the clamping module. The clamping module includes an electro-optical system for identifying the hose clamp, which has an optical marking. The electro-optical system includes a first light source for emitting at least a first light beam and a second light source for emitting at least a second light beam. The second light source is formed differently than the first light source. A photodetector receives a reflected light, and an optical window bundles the first light beam and/or the second light beam on the disposable infusion article, as well as the reflected light received by the photodetector. The method identifies the hose clamp based on a color and uses a measurement algorithm after insertion of the hose clamp into the medical pump.

  • Publication number: 20230001086
    Abstract: A medical fluid pump of the infusion or syringe pump design includes a fluid pump housing which includes a display unit, in particular a display or touch display, with a plurality of display panels that are prepared and configured to display at least one respective function parameter of the fluid pump, including at least one setting parameter which can be set directly by a user of the fluid pump and a plurality of operating parameters which cannot be set directly by the user. The representation of the at least one setting parameter stands out visually against the operating parameters, such as by displaying the at least one setting parameter in an enlarged size compared to the operating parameters.

  • Publication number: 20230001073
    Abstract: A medical pump system includes at least one medical fluid pump of a first type and at least one medical fluid pump of a second type. The medical fluid pumps can be assembled or arranged vertically, with one of the medical fluid pumps positioned above the other. Each medical fluid pump has a movable front flap with an integrated display and operating elements. The medical fluid pumps can be directly connected to one another in a vertical arrangement, or arranged in a vertical arrangement with the aid of a carrying or holding device. When the medical fluid pumps are vertically arranged, the displays and operating elements of the respective medical fluid pumps are aligned vertically.
