BodyGuard - Epidural
Ambulatory Infusion Pump
Enter a new era in ambulatory epidural analgesia management with the BodyGuard 545 Epidural pump. BodyGuard offers a comprehensive range of features designed to maximise safe, economic and simple administration of epidural regimens.
The BodyGuard Epidural offers Bolus only (PCA), Basal plus Bolus (Patient Controlled Epidural Analgesia) or Continuous only (Epidural Analgesia) infusion modes. BodyGuard is light, compact & robust ensuring it can be used in a wide variety of treatment settings such as hospital, homecare, transport or emergency medicine. This flexibility is further enhanced by the rechargeable, internal Li-Ion battery and a pole-mountable mains charger.
A piston pump mechanism ensures unparalleled accuracy and linearity of infusion even at the lowest infusion rates to meet the standards of the most demanding specialties & indications. BodyGuard can be configured with up to 26 standard drug protocols that can be stored for later selection & use on the wards.
During use the display shows the protocol selected & the name ofthe drug or regimen being infused. BodyGuard constitutes a major advance in ambulatory pump technology incorporating active and passive safety features which can be configured to fit local practice and then locked to prevent change by unauthorised personnel.
These features include colour coded pump and consumables, security access codes, anti-bolus system, free-flow protection in all consumables, downloadable patient & event history, adjustable air-in-line detection and variable occlusion pressure settings, bolus delivery rate & infusion rate limiter.
