SUMMARY

The discussion centers on creating a model of a human hand that simulates venous pressure between 10 to 30 mmHg for use with an intravenous (IV) infusion pump. Participants suggest using a closed-loop tubing system with a fluid pump to achieve the desired pressure. Key considerations include selecting an appropriate type of pump and using elastic tubing that allows for needle insertion. The goal is to develop a functional model that accurately mimics human venous conditions.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of venous pressure measurement (10 to 30 mmHg)
  • Knowledge of fluid dynamics in closed-loop systems
  • Familiarity with IV infusion pump design
  • Experience with selecting and using fluid pumps
NEXT STEPS
  • Research types of fluid pumps suitable for simulating venous pressure
  • Explore materials for elastic tubing that can accommodate needle insertion
  • Investigate fluid dynamics principles relevant to closed-loop systems
  • Learn about IV infusion pump calibration and pressure monitoring techniques
USEFUL FOR

Biomedical engineers, medical device designers, and researchers developing simulation models for IV infusion systems.

Hello,

I need to make a simple model of human hand with a vein that has the same pressure of a real vein 10 to 30 mmHg ,basically I want to use it with my iv infusion pump design ,please could you tell me what is the best way to do that?

What has your reading and research found so far?

I can think of several things that I would want to include in such a model. What things are you thinking of including so far?

i am thinking of creating a pressure by circulating a fluid in a closed loop tubing using a fluid pump ,but I am not sure what type of pump should I use ,also I want a tubing that is elastic enough so that a needle can be inserted to it ! ,is there any better idea ?
