What is infusion device analyzer calibration?
Infusion device analyzer calibration ensures these instruments accurately test the safety and precision of infusion pumps, which regulate the controlled delivery of fluids to patients. Calibration involves comparing the analyzer’s measurements against a higher-accuracy reference standard, verifying its reliability for clinical applications.
Why is calibration important for infusion device analyzers?
Infusion pumps are widely used in healthcare, with 80% of patients requiring intravenous fluid administration at some stage. Accurate calibration ensures:
- Correct dosage delivery to patients
- Reliable performance of infusion pumps
- Prevention of treatment errors caused by inaccurate readings
- Compliance with healthcare safety regulations
Any drift in analyzer accuracy can lead to incorrect fluid administration, potentially compromising patient care.
