Its compact design and advanced safety features make it one of the most widely used smart syringe pumps worldwide.
What types of medications can the Perfusor Space deliver?
The Perfusor Space is designed to administer a wide range of medications including vasoactive drugs, sedatives, analgesics, insulin, chemotherapy agents, antibiotics, blood products, neonatal medications, pediatric infusions, and anesthesia medications that require highly accurate syringe-based delivery.
Is the Perfusor Space a smart infusion pump?
Yes. The Perfusor Space is a smart syringe pump that supports customizable drug libraries, Dose Error Reduction Software (DERS), configurable medication limits, wireless communication (on supported models), and integration into the B. Braun Space Infusion System. These features help reduce medication programming errors and improve patient safety.
Does the Perfusor Space include a drug library?
Yes. The Perfusor Space supports facility-specific drug libraries that contain standardized medication names, concentrations, dosing limits, and care area profiles. Hospitals can customize these libraries to match their clinical protocols and medication safety policies.
Do refurbished Perfusor Space pumps include a drug library?
Typically, no. Drug libraries are created and maintained by each healthcare facility and are customized to its medications, concentrations, care areas, and clinical protocols. During refurbishment, previous facility drug libraries are generally removed. The purchasing facility is responsible for loading and validating its own approved drug library before clinical use.
Can the Perfusor Space operate without a drug library?
Yes. The pump can operate using standard infusion programming without an installed drug library. However, advanced medication safety features such as dose checking, standardized medication selection, and configurable dosing limits are only available when a facility-specific drug library has been installed.
Can Outfront Medical install my hospital's drug library?
In most cases, no. Drug library management is typically performed by each healthcare facility's pharmacy, biomedical engineering, nursing leadership, and clinical informatics teams. Software compatibility should always be verified before integrating refurbished pumps into an existing fleet.
What syringe sizes are supported?
The Perfusor Space supports approved syringes ranging from 2/3 mL through 60 mL from multiple manufacturers, including B. Braun and other approved syringe brands. The pump automatically recognizes compatible syringes to improve infusion accuracy and patient safety. Healthcare facilities should always verify that the syringes being used are listed as compatible by B. Braun.
Does the Perfusor Space support wireless connectivity?
Yes. Wireless models allow healthcare facilities to integrate the pump with hospital information systems, remotely distribute drug library updates, collect infusion data, and improve fleet management. Non-wireless models are also available.
Can the Perfusor Space be used during patient transport?
Yes. The Perfusor Space was the first syringe pump to receive FDA clearance for both air and ground transport. Its lightweight design, long battery life, and compact size make it well suited for transport medicine, critical care transport, and emergency medical applications.
Is the Perfusor Space MRI compatible?
Yes. When used with the B. Braun SpaceStation MRI enclosure and according to the manufacturer's guidelines, the Perfusor Space is MR Conditional, allowing medication delivery to continue during MRI procedures.
What safety features are included?
The Perfusor Space includes customizable occlusion pressure settings, automatic syringe recognition, configurable drug libraries, Dose Error Reduction Software (DERS), audible and visual alarms, anti-free-flow protection, event logging, battery monitoring, and comprehensive infusion monitoring features designed to improve medication safety.
