Medical Shipment Offers Distributed Infusion Pumps to Enhance Clinical Education

Across healthcare simulation, infusion pumps play an important role in the training of learners and professionals alike. They can be used to assess knowledge, clinical simulation performance, and confidence, helping ensure that each learner is prepared for real-life scenarios upon entering the field. As such, infusion pumps are one of the many medical supplies offered by the premium supplier, Medical Shipment. This HealthySimulation.com article specifically focuses on the features and benefits of the BD Alaris infusion systems, while highlighting several other pumps available through this distributor.

Overall, the BD Alaris infusion systems, infusion software, infusion system therapies, and IV therapy sets and accessories provided by Medical Shipment can help pharmacy, nursing and other departments address diverse infusion needs. These solutions offer exceptional versatility as Alaris infusion systems work independently and together to accurately deliver infusions while helping protect each patient. With large volume pump (LVP), syringe, and PCA modalities on one platform, the systems help users streamline workflow and manage infusion data across all care areas.

An “all-in-one” solution, Alaris provides everything users need to collect, interpret and respond to IV medication data captured at the point of care. Using wireless data set to transfer and Guardrails suite MX software alerts, users can quickly download data for rapid cycle improvement.
