Description
The C100005 is an Avanos Homepump C-Series Ambulatory Infusion System**. This model belongs to the clinical family designed for continuous, low-flow delivery, which is most commonly utilized for home-based chemotherapy protocols (such as 5-FU) and other medications requiring extended infusion times.
The model number indicates a 100 ml reservoir and a very slow 0.5 ml/hr flow rate.
Key Features
Precision Oncology Delivery: Specifically engineered to provide a constant, low-dose medication stream. This is critical for drugs with a narrow therapeutic window where over-infusion must be avoided.
Ultra-Long Duration: At a flow rate of 0.5 ml/hr, a full 100 ml reservoir provides a continuous infusion for 200 hours (approximately 8.3 days).
Non-Electronic Safety: The pump uses mechanical elastomeric pressure rather than software or batteries. This eliminates the risk of programming errors or electronic failure during the multi-day infusion.
Flow Restrictor Technology: Employs a calibrated glass capillary (flow restrictor) that sits near the patient's skin to ensure the flow rate remains consistent, even as the pressure in the balloon changes.
Patient Comfort: Because it is silent and requires no IV pole, patients can sleep, move, and shower (with proper line protection) without the burden of a heavy electronic pump.
