ABSTRACT:
A modular ambulatory infusion pump comprises a base unit including an integral housing, said base unit including an infusion pump for infusing fluid into a patient's body, a battery power supply for energizing infusion pump and a control for operating the infusion pump to achieve at least one of a desired rate, a desired volume and a desired time interval for infusing the fluid. Disposed on the integral housing is a first electrical connector, said first electrical connector being provided to electrically couple the base unit to a mating connector on one of the plurality of modules, said one of the plurality of modules being coupled to the base unit to add a selected additional port to the base unit and to provide additional capability, said plurality of modules including a data port module that includes a printer interface port. Also provided is an external power input module that includes a power port for coupling the modular ambulatory infusion pump to an AC line to provide electrical power for the base unit.
