AbstractAbstractOur objective was to design an infusion pump that Our objective was to design an infusion pump that will be used to deliver contrast agents during a MRI will be used to deliver contrast agents during a MRI exam. Currently used is a syringe pump injector exam. Currently used is a syringe pump injector system that delivers fluids at the rates our client system that delivers fluids at the rates our client desires. However, it is limited in its sequence desires. However, it is limited in its sequence capability and saline/gadolinium capacities. Our capability and saline/gadolinium capacities. Our client would like a new pump that is more client would like a new pump that is more programmable and large enough to hold the amount programmable and large enough to hold the amount of gadolinium and saline needed for the entirety of of gadolinium and saline needed for the entirety of one study. A replacement would reduce the total one study. A replacement would reduce the total time needed to complete imaging and consequently, time needed to complete imaging and consequently, produce more accurate results. We propose a design produce more accurate results. We propose a design where the movement of a ratchet and pawl due to an where the movement of a ratchet and pawl due to an air-driven solenoid valve/linear actuator rotates a air-driven solenoid valve/linear actuator rotates a peristaltic pump to deliver fluids to the patient.peristaltic pump to deliver fluids to the patient.
