ABSTRACT:
The multiple medication IV pump provides automated intravenous delivery of one or more medications. A carousel assembly holds multiple medication vials, and a computerized control circuit operates the carousel to position a selected medication vial proximate to a spiking unit and mixing chamber to deliver the contents of the vial into an IV solution. The spiking unit and mixing chamber comprise a hollow chamber and a hollow spike, or needle, extending from the hollow chamber. The contents of a medication vial spiked onto the spiking unit flow into the mixing chamber. A fluid entry port located near the top of the mixing chamber is connected to a first pump such that a fluid may be pumped into the mixing chamber. A fluid exit port located near the bottom of the mixing chamber is connected to a second pump such that a fluid may be pumped out from the mixing chamber.
