Alaris GW Volumetric Pump: A Reliable Solution for Medical Infusion
The Cardinal Health Alaris GW volumetric pump is designed to ensure continuous and precise administration of intravenous fluids in a hospital setting. Whether for general care or intensive care environments, it guarantees optimal control of infusion rates, allowing healthcare professionals to work with confidence. With its clear display and intuitive controls, parameter configuration is quick and efficient.
This volumetric pump operates with high precision, which is essential for ensuring the correct administration of prescribed treatments. Its monitoring system can instantly identify and alert in case of issues, such as obstructions or air in the infusion line. It features an integrated ultrasonic sensor to detect air bubbles, thereby avoiding risks to patients.
One of the strengths of the Alaris GW is its compatibility with numerous infusion sets, including standard sets, blood transfusion sets, and filter sets. This versatility allows for easy integration into various medical protocols.
In terms of performance, it offers a wide flow rate range, from 1 to 999 ml/h, and allows for programmable infusions lasting up to 99 hours and 59 minutes. Its Keep Vein Open (KVO) system enables continued infusion at a reduced rate at the end of treatment to prevent catheter obstruction.
The device is designed to be robust and reliable while remaining compact and lightweight (1.5 kg without the power cable), facilitating transport and installation in various hospital departments. It operates on both mains power and a rechargeable battery, providing up to 6 hours of autonomy at a flow rate of 25 ml/h.
Safety is a central element of this pump's design. It features multiple alarm levels to signal system errors, upstream and downstream occlusions, air in the line, low battery, or an improperly closed door. These alerts enable quick intervention and minimize perfusion interruptions.
With its solid technical features and intuitive interface, the Alaris GW pump is an essential tool for healthcare facilities seeking a reliable solution for managing intravenous infusions.
