Hydraulic Capillary Infusion System

The Hydraulic Capillary Infusion System was designed by us 23 years ago. It has become the standard infusion system used by clinicians and researchers around the world. Designed to replace the older pump-syringe devices, this high fidelity, low infusion rate manometric system is capable of accurate pressure measurements throughout the esophageal body and oropharynx. Simple, low maintenance operation makes this infusion system ideal for clinical esophageal, biliary, anorectal and intestinal manometric studies. Highly accurate pressure recording makes this infusion system a must for research in normal and abnormal esophageal physiology.

1 No Moving Parts.
Therefore, extremely reliable and simple to operate, with little maintenance necessary.

2 A Simple, Self-Contained Unit.
Pressure transducers attach directly to infusion system. No need for separate transducer stand or complicated plumbing interface.

3 low Infusion Rates.
Allows accurate pressure measurements throughout the esophagus and oropharynx. Because of low infusion rate, there is no patient discomfort encountered in oropharynx.

4 large Water Reservoir.
There is no need to refill water reservoir during manometric study.

5 Designed for Small Bore Catheters.
As the catheter internal diameter is reduced, the Hydraulic Capillary Infusion System actually performs better. Result: Small extruded catheters are practical with the added advantage of better performance.
