title: Severe forearm oedema after intravenous infusion with a IMED 960 infusion pump.
abstract: We report two cases of severe forearm oedema occurring because of extravasation of intra-venous fluid at the sites of a concealed intra-venous cannula connected to an automatic infusion pump (IMED 960 IMED, Ireland), with one of the cases causing acute ischaemia to the hand.
