Arcomed AG products

Why not involve the patient while s/he is awake in decisions about bolus drug delivery, based upon his/her pain perception? Consideration of this factor whilst maintaining the highest safety standards has been our priority in the development of our PCA/PCEA/PCS pumps.

In line with our All-in-One philosophy, arcomed pumps fully support bolus tocolysis protocols, offering pre-defined programs with varying recurrent bolus levels to be used in labor wards – improving infusion safety and simplicity.

An air-activated PCA bolus switch for the provision of analgesia in those patients fully conscious but unable to use their hands or upper limbs. The bolus switch includes an intelligent pressure sensor and disposable tube, with a filter and mouthpiece attached, which is kept close to the patient’s mouth using an articulated arm. To request a bolus, the patient simply has to introduce a continuous amount of air into the mouthpiece. It is used in connection with our infusion devices, enabling both programmed doses and doses requested by patients as well as supporting a variety of configurations.
