The Haines® Syringe Pump Pouch is designed to enable patients to stay mobile while receiving an infusion. Used widely across Australia, ambulatory 'syringe pumps' are clever and costly little units. Small, portable and programmable, they deliver the contents of a 2 to 50ml syringe over a specified period of time (e.g. 24 hours). The pump is placed inside a ‘lockbox’ - reducing the risk of damage or intervention - then inside a pouch - allowing the unit to be carried or worn comfortably on the body.
Until now, the only available pouch was reusable, and over $200 per unit. As they are commonly used by outpatients, the majority of pouches are not returned post-use - resulting in a substantial cost to healthcare facilities - and the pouches that are returned can pose an infection control risk. Haines Syringe Pump Pouches alleviate this risk, at around one tenth of the cost of reusable pouches.
