ABSTRACT:
An IV fluid control system having an IV set and a control device (such as an IV controller or fusion pump) includes a flow sensor which senses the flow of fluid through the IV set. Fluid runaway is prevented by an interlock which prevents removal of the IV set from the control device unless the fluid flow through the IV set is stopped. As a result, the medical personnel must clamp the outlet tubing of the IV set to stop fluid flow before removing the IV set from the control device.
