Medrad announces enhancements to its infusion system

Medrad Inc. this week unveiled enhancements to its Continuum MR Compatible Infusion system.

The device now offers a syringe holder that holds up to three standard syringes ranging in size from 20 to 60 mL, making it possible to deliver small volumes of cardiac stress agents, IV sedatives and other critical medications during an MR scanning procedure. The syringe holder also enables critically ill patients to receive fluids from multiple syringes and IV bags at the same time.
