An elastomeric pump, also known as a balloon pump or ball pump, is a medical device used for infusing medication. Depending on the therapy needed, these medications might include antibiotics, chemotherapy, 5FU, cytostatics, analgesics, and local anesthetics. • Elastomeric pumps use pressure to infuse medication. This pressure is created by an elastomeric layer which is molded into the inside of the pump. When the elastomeric pump gets filled, the elastomeric layer becomes stretched. The elastic constriction then drives the liquid that is present through the tubing. • The liquid eventually goes through the flow restrictor and then out into the connection with the patient. The pressure will be consistent in level until the infusion is nearly over, which is when there is usually a pressure spike that results in a slightly higher rate of flow. • The flow restrictor controls the accuracy of the rate of flow. The flow restrictor is typically a steel cannula or glass capillary which is molded into the system tubing or even placed inside the elastomeric reservoir. • Elastomeric pumps do not need electricity, nor are they driven by gravity. When a pump is placed below or above a patient, the rate of flow will often decrease or increase thanks to the head height effect. • You can read more about Elastomeric Pumps and how they work here: https://www.wolfmed.com/blog/elastome... • Shop our wide selection of elastomeric pumps here: https://www.wolfmed.com/catalogsearch...
