Měření mechanických vlastností infuzních setů (degradace) v závislosti na sterilizaci a počtu jejich použití

Abstract

Infusion technics usage is irreplaceable component of medical devices in these days. It is mainly used for intravenous administration of drugs, nutrients and physiological solutions as well. Infusion sets that are applied for substances transition to patient´s body, come into contact with patient´s tissue, blood and with solution that have been used. It is therefore obvious why the set must not have been used for more patients then one. Every infusion set is designed for just one usage ongoing for 24 hours maximum. Sadly, sterilization and multiple set´s usage is not out if the question on some clinics. This thesis object is to find an influence of the sterilization and multiple one set using on degradation of it is mechanical features using experimental measurement. At the very end of this thesis will be said whether it is possible to use the infusion set more than once with no negative effect on dosage accuracy.
