    摘要: An infusion system (10) including a radioisotope generator (52) that generates a radioactive eluate via an elution, an activity detector (58) configured to measure an activity of a first radioisotope in the radioactive eluate generated by the radioisotope generator, and a controller (80). The controller can track a cumulative volume of radioactive eluate generated by the radioisotope generator and also track the activity of the first radioisotope in the radioactive eluate generated by the radioisotope generator. The controller can determine a predicted volume of the radioactive eluate generated by the radioisotope generator at which the activity of the first radioisotope in the radioactive eluate will reach a threshold based on the tracked cumulative volume of the radioactive eluate and the tracked activity of the first radioisotope. This information can be useful for proactively removing the radioisotope generator from service and/or replacing the radioisotope generator with a fresh generator.

    摘要: Provided is a contrast medium injection system that enables easy removal of air bubbles in a drug solution in a flow path, use of inexpensive tubes and measurement of blood pressure in external power outage.
    The contrast medium injection system includes at least one fluid injection flow path and an opening and blocking unit provided in the fluid injection flow path. The opening and blocking unit includes a generally cylindrical space and a spherical body disposed to be movable between a first end portion and a second end portion opposite to the first end portion in the generally cylindrical space. The spherical body blocks the fluid injection flow path when the spherical body is in close contact with the first end portion. The fluid injection flow path is opened when a state in which the spherical body is in close contact with the first end portion is released.

    摘要: An intravenous (IV) fluid delivery system include an IV bag and a fluid delivery device. The IV bag is made of many fluidic channels that keep the fluid distributed across the bag such that the bag may be easily and comfortably wrapped around the arm and shoulder of a person. At least some of the fluidic channels have a slanted shape to maximize emptying the contents of the IV bag as the fluid is injected to the patient's vein. The system includes a pump that moves the fluid into a tube and a needle that is connected to a person's vein. The processor repeatedly turns the pump on or off to gradually transfer the fluid from the IV bag into the person's vein. The processor controls the delivery of the fluid based on the patient's biometric data and/or hand movements as measured by the fluid delivery device.
