Bedside infusion pump

Definition

An electrically-powered, non-ambulatory (bedside) device designed to facilitate the accurate and consistent administration of drugs and solutions which can be delivered via intravenous, subcutaneous, arterial, epidural, and intracavital routes using a dedicated infusion set; it is not dedicated to a specific treatment type. It is used to supply higher pressures than those provided by gravity infusion sets or infusion controllers (e.g., typical flow range of 1 to 999 ml/hour) and delivers solutions from a standard infusion bag or bottle of fluid. It is intended primarily for use at the bedside but typically has internal batteries that enable operation, e.g., during transportation.
