Smiths Medical (Saint Paul, MN) partnered with leading enteral syringe companies to allow Medfusion® 3500 pumps to recognize NeoMed®… enteral syringes, which will help reduce the risk of IV and enteral misconnections. Adding enteral syringe data to PharmGuard® v5 software for Medfusion 3500 pumps allows clinicians to meet Joint Commission (Oakbrook Terrace, IL) requirements for enteral feedings, differentiate their patients’ IV and enteral lines, and help meet their facility’s needs by providing safe and accurate enteral delivery.
