## Device Story

WalkMed series (300, 350, IC, PCA, Plus) are infusion pumps designed for delivery of medications/fluids via intravenous, subcutaneous, arterial, enteral, or epidural routes. Devices provide precisely-controlled infusion rates for antibiotics, analgesics, and chemotherapeutic agents. Operated by healthcare professionals in clinical settings; pumps manage fluid delivery to patients requiring controlled therapy. Output consists of mechanical fluid infusion; clinical decision-making relies on pump settings for rate and volume. Benefits include accurate, consistent medication administration.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence based on device description and intended use.

## Technological Characteristics

Infusion pump system; electromechanical fluid delivery; supports multiple infusion routes (IV, subcutaneous, arterial, enteral, epidural).

## Regulatory Identification

An infusion pump is a device used in a health care facility to pump fluids into a patient in a controlled manner. The device may use a piston pump, a roller pump, or a peristaltic pump and may be powered electrically or mechanically. The device may also operate using a constant force to propel the fluid through a narrow tube which determines the flow rate. The device may include means to detect a fault condition, such as air in, or blockage of, the infusion line and to activate an alarm.
