Testing and Evaluation of the Medical Technology Products Model 1001a Infusion Pump.

Abstract

The Military Airlift Command directs and controls aeromedical evacuation missions for the United States Air Force (USAF) and most of the Department of Defense (DOD). There is often a critical need to monitor and control the rate of infusions of intravenous fluids being administered to patients. The aeromedical evacuation system has, for the past several years, utilized the IMED Volumetric Pump Model 928. At present, the 928 is no longer being manufactured. The MTP Model 1001a is the selected replacement. The Aeromedical Research Function at the USAF School of Aerospace Medicine tested and evaluated the Model 1001a, and found that it is a safe and reliable device for the delivery of intravenous fluids, and is acceptable for worldwide aeromedical evacuation use.
