title: A multiple-purpose automatic pressure regulator.
abstract: The Gairdner Hospital Automatic Pressure Regulator was developed to deliver a constant pre-set gas pressure for the continuous inflation of infusion pump cuffs or pneumatic tourniquets. It has been found to be economical, safe, reliable and easy to use. The device facilitates both continuous flushing of catheters and rapid intravenous infusions especially during emergency situations. It may also be used in other clinical situations where a continuous gas supply at a pre-set constant pressure is required.
