The Hospira GemStar® Infusion Pump Systems are a family of single channel, software controlled, electromechanical infusion pumps that operate on a volumetric, piston driven, fluid displacement principle. An in-line cassette is used to meter IV fluids through sterile dedicated administration sets designed to be used exclusively with GemStar infusers. Power options included an AC main adaptor, a rechargeable battery pack, a docking station, and two disposable AA batteries. The user interface allows the healthcare practitioner to program fluid delivery through a variety of weight and medication based units. The pump displays provide visible indication of several functions, including active pump operations, alarm and program status, and the parameters of fluid flow. The infusers function as both pole mounted and ambulatory infusion pumps.
