Smart Pumps 2008
While all vendors claim to significantly increase patient safety, are they able to deliver on that promise? What distinctions, if any, exist among the vendors and their offerings? What are the hurdles in product adoption and nurse compliance? What advancements in smart pump technology is the market demanding?
KLAS interviewed over 200 healthcare professionals regarding the experiences they are having with their smart infusion pump vendors and products to find out the answers to these and other questions. This study focuses on large volumetric pumps (LVPs) with dose calculation software. Additional data on syringe and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pumps is also included in this report.
LVP vendor products qualifying for ranking in the study were
- B. Braun Outlook
- Baxter Colleague
- Cardinal Health Alaris System (LVP)
- Hospira Plum A+/MedNet
- Sigma Spectrum.
PCA vendor products qualifying for ranking in the study were Cardinal Health Alaris System (PCA) and Hospira LifeCare. Early findings were also included for B. Braun Curlin and Smiths ADD.
Syringe vendor products qualifying for ranking in the study were Cardinal Health Alaris System and Smiths Medfusion.
