B. Braun Medical said today that it won 510(k) clearance from the FDA for its 2nd-generation, large-volume Infusomat pump for delivery of parenteral fluids, medications, blood and blood products.
“Clinicians, including nurses and anesthesiologists, participated in extensive software navigation testing,” marketing, automation & infusion systems vice president Mike Golebiowski said in prepared remarks. “Based on their feedback, we optimized the pump’s user interface to enhance efficiencies and make programming easy and intuitive.
“One unique feature that is only available in the second-generation Infusomat Space Pump is the healthcare worker’s ability to change care units without having to stop or reprogram the infusion,”Golebiowski said. “This represents an important advance in maintaining drug library compliance.”
The device is configured to work with Braun’s DoseTrac infusion management software and its AutoComplete integrated EMR system, the Bethlehem, Pa.-based company said.
“The pump is the first step to a wireless, integrated technology system that ultimately can help clinicians achieve 100% drug library compliance, minimize medication errors and reduce alarm alerts,” Golebiowski said.
Braun said it collaborated with Healthcare Human Factors in conducting usability testing on the Infusomat device.
