Comparison of Flowrate and Occlusion in a Vertical Infusion Pump and Horizontal Infusion Pump
An infusion pump is a device used to enter fluid into the patient's body through a continuous. During its development, there are currently two types of infusion pumps namely vertical infusion pumps and horizontal infusion pumps used by users. The two infusion pumps have different technologies. Doctors and nurses as users sometimes feel confused in their use, caused by different technologies. This research was conducted to compare the results of the performance of the two infusion pumps. Is it true that there are differences in results so that users can use the type of infusion pump appropriately? At the time of data collection, the infusion pump is given intravenous fluids then the number of drops is examined, and occlusion. Before data collection, Infusion Pump is calibrated first by using an Infusion Device Analyzer to check the condition of the device. Data collection was carried out 5 times with 3 minutes for each parameter. The results of the data collection will be tested using the normality test and the different tests. Based on the T-Test results a significant value on the data collected is greater than 0.05, which means that the null hypothesis is accepted while the alternative hypothesis is rejected. Based on the results of the T-Test it can be concluded that there is no difference between the vertical and horizontal Infusion Pump outputs. The results of this study can be used as a useful reference in their use of patients. Infusion pump users no longer need to be confused using a vertical or horizontal infusion pump because there is no difference in the function of the two.
