title: [Electric infusion devices].
abstract: Electrical infusion devices are specifically aimed to maintain an accurate and constant flow rate. The infused agents can be allocated into three categories of risk, according to their therapeutical index and their infusion rate. Each category requires infusion devices with the corresponding performances. Moreover the choice of a device depends also on ergonomical and environmental criteria as the area of use (e.g. ambulatory patient, transport, neonates, intravenous anaesthesia).
