Bedside infusion pump, single-channel

Bedside infusion pumps with a single-channel design deliver precise, controlled infusions of fluids or medications through routes like intravenous, subcutaneous, or epidural access. They replace manual gravity-based methods, ensuring consistent flow rates (typically 1–999 ml/hour) for treatments requiring higher pressure or continuous dosing, such as pain management or chemotherapy support.

These devices are typically regulated as medical technology, often requiring compliance with safety standards for electrical operation, fluid pathways, and programming accuracy. They may be supplied as standalone units or as part of a kit (e.g., with infusion sets) and are intended for hospital or clinical use, though some models include battery backup for portability.
