This Standard provides advice on infusion pumps, infusion controllers, syringe pumps, and pumps for ambulatory use. These devices are intended to be used in hospitals for the administration of drugs or liquids to patients. In some circumstances they may be used by patients at home, under medical direction.This Standard does not apply to devices specifically intended for angiography, enteral infusion, or infusion of blood. Devices for extracorporeal circulation of blood including haemodialysis and plasmapheresis, or which are implanted in the body, are also excluded.In these specific cases refer to the manufacturer's operating instructions.NOTE: Because of the wide variation in use of these devices, this Standard can only address in general terms factors affecting their reliability or their intrinsic safety. The safe use of the infusion device is primarily the responsibility of the user. The user should therefore be trained in the correct selection of devices to ensure that the characteristics of the device chosen are appropriate for the treatment. The user should also be familiar with the operation of the device in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
