A novel ambulatory infusion pump meets the changing needs of patients in different healthcare settings, such as in a hospital, at the home, and in alternate care environments.
The Nimbus ambulatory infusion pump is a single-use, recyclable device designed for the delivery of medications and fluids to a patient for subcutaneous, epidural, perineural, and intravenous (IV) infusions. The system combines a simple user interface and reliable technology to provide both continuous rate and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) bolus infusions. The low profile pump, when combined with the carrying case, also allows the user to complete daily activities while administering infusion therapy in a discrete manner.
The single-use, easy-to-program ambulatory pump offers a cost effective solution, since there are no batteries needed and no prefilled cassettes to purchase. The availability of a pump recycling service helps reduces costs even further. Safety features include single function buttons to avoid errors, upstream and downstream occlusion alarms, and an anti-free-flow design. The Nimbus ambulatory infusion pump is a product of Zyno Medical (Natick, MA, USA), and has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
“We are pleased to launch our latest infusion technology that focuses on a safe and effective ambulatory infusion delivery system for patient care, and a cost efficient solution for the clinician in this current healthcare environment,” said Chaoyoung Lee, MD, president of Zyno Medical. “It exemplifies our commitment to our philosophy, ‘Simplicity equals Safety.’ By leveraging Zyno Medical’s experience in infusion technologies, we designed this easy to use infusion system with the patient, nurse, and clinician needs in mind.”
