Appl. No.:
8/168470
Inventors:
Kenneth M. Spiller - Lafayette LA
International Classification:
A61M 514
US Classification:

Abstract:
A system for the intravenous administration of single or multiple mendicants and/or nutrients to a patient through single or multiple intravenous tubings from single or multiple intravenous fluid sources where a portion of the intravenous tubing and a portion of the intravenous fluid source container are clearly marked with multiple indicia allowing for rapid visual identification and distinction between different tubes and containers, and where a section of the intravenous tubing at the patient's body and a section of the intravenous fluid container remains clear, colorless and transparent allowing for rapid and easy visual quality control and monitoring of the transfusion process. In a preferred embodiment, the multiple indicia comprise different colors, wherein each set of tubing and fluid reservoir is easily visually distinguished from the other, and also in the preferred embodiment the indicia is arranged in such a way so as to always provide a clear, colorless and transparent section of intravenous tubing immediately adjacent the injection site on the patient's body and a clear, colorless and transparent section of the container. Wherein said clear, colorless and transparent sections allowing easy visual quality control and monitoring of the transfusion.
