Description
The Avanos SE050500 is a model within the Homepump Eclipse Series*, a line of non-electronic, disposable elastomeric infusion pumps. It is designed for high-flow, short-duration delivery of medications, primarily for outpatient or home-based intravenous therapy.
Key Features
Elastomeric Pressure System: Uses a pressurized internal balloon to deliver medication consistently without the need for batteries, power cords, or gravity.
Rapid Delivery Profile: Specifically engineered for bolus-style or short-term infusions rather than the multi-day delivery found in chemotherapy-specific pumps.
Fixed Flow Technology: Employs a pre-set capillary restrictor to maintain a steady flow rate, eliminating the risk of electronic programming errors.
Silent and Discreet: Operates completely without noise or mechanical alarms, allowing for comfortable treatment during daily activities or rest.
Integrated Safety Filtering: Includes a built-in air-eliminating and particulate filter to protect the patient from air embolisms and contaminants.
Transparent Shell: Features a clear outer housing that allows clinicians and patients to monitor the progress of the infusion visually.
