A clamp for regulating fluid flow in a flexible tube of a fluid injector system including an anvil and a cam assembly is described. The anvil includes a receiving surface for receiving the flexible tube. The cam assembly includes either a solid cam or a rollable outer race and an inner race having a central axis and a rotation axis spaced apart from the central axis. The inner race is rotatable relative to the outer race. Rotation of the inner race about the rotation axis rolls the outer race in a direction relative to the receiving surface of the anvil to reversibly compress the flexible tube between the outer race and the anvil.

A monitoring system for a gravity infusion IV tubing includes a drip chamber having an inlet configured to receive fluid from a fluid source. The drip chamber also has an outlet configured to deliver fluid towards a patient. The system includes a pressure sensor pneumatically coupled with the drip chamber. The pressure sensor is configured to measure the pressure inside the drip chamber. A controller is configured to receive pressure measurements from the pressure sensor and to use the pressure measurements to count a number of drops entering the drip chamber from the fluid source.

A fluid injection device having a body contacting an injection site (SI); one or more fluid reservoirs (210); an injection needle (120) for injecting contents of one or more reservoir(s) (210); and a respective priming needle (125) associated with each reservoir (210) for penetrating into the reservoir (210) before dispensing the fluid. Each reservoir (210) includes a tube (145) connected at one end to its priming needle (125), and at the other end to a manifold (140), itself connected to the injection needle. The device has a peristaltic pump having a ring (150) mounted to rotate on a crankshaft (131), the ring (150) turning about an axis of rotation (Y) offset relative to the axis of rotation (X) of the crankshaft (131), progressively compressing the portion of tube (148) that extends around the crankshaft (131).

Keep vein open (KVO) infusion flow control devices are provided. The KVO infusion flow control device couples to intravenous (IV) tubing and includes a flow controller that provides a full open fluid flow rate through an outlet portion of the IV tubing when the flow controller is in an open position, and a KVO fluid flow rate through the outlet portion of the IV tubing when the flow controller is in a KVO position. Visual indicators are disposed on the KVO infusion flow control device.

Flow stop assemblies are described herein. A flow stop assembly configured to control flow through a tubing includes a flow stop base and a pincher. The flow stop base includes a base wall, at least one pincher guard, a tubing guide, a pincher recess, a pincher protrusion, and a base extension. The pincher is movable relative to the base extension and is configured to move between a flow position and an occlusion position, wherein in the flow position the pincher surface is spaced apart from the pincher protrusion and in the occlusion position, the pincher surface is disposed adjacent to the pincher protrusion and is configured to obstruct flow through the tubing.

A pump for treating a patient is disclosed that includes a spring-biased plunger biased toward actuation against a tube; a cam shaft configured to actuate the spring-based plunger; a lever actuatable between a closed position and an open position; a shaft coupled to the lever, the shaft having a central axis centrally along the length of the shaft, the shaft coupled to the lever to rotate around the central axis in accordance with actuation of the lever; and a lift cam pivotally coupled to the shaft, wherein the lift cam pivots around a lift cam axis, the lift cam axis of the lift cam is parallel to the central axis of the shaft, and the lift cam engages with the spring-based plunger to lift the spring-biased plunger off of the cam shaft as the shaft rotates in accordance with actuating the lever to the open position.

A clamping mechanism (30) for clamping a flexible tube comprises two rotatable bobbins (22, 32), each with a tube-engaging surface portion (24) defining boundaries of: a free space through which a tube may extend. The shape of: the tube-engaging surface portion (24) changes around the bobbin circumference, such that axial rotation of the bobbins (22, 32) reduces the free space and thereby squeezes the tube. This allows the flow through the tube to be altered dependent on the rotation of: the bobbins.

Keep vein open (KVO) infusion flow control devices are provided. The KVO infusion flow control device couples to intravenous (IV) tubing and includes a flow controller that provides a full open fluid flow rate through an outlet portion of the IV tubing when the flow controller is in an open position, and a KVO fluid flow rate through the outlet portion of the IV tubing when the flow controller is in a KVO position. Visual indicators are disposed on the KVO infusion flow control device.
