IntroductionIntroduction The Level 1 rapid infuser is a fast flow rate The Level 1 rapid infuser is a fast flow rate

fluid warmer fluid warmer With the D-300 disposable tubing the flow With the D-300 disposable tubing the flow

rate can be from 30ml/min to 1100ml/min rate can be from 30ml/min to 1100ml/min with a maximal rate of 1400ml/minwith a maximal rate of 1400ml/min

The temperature of the fluids delivered to The temperature of the fluids delivered to the patient is between 36-40 degrees the patient is between 36-40 degrees Celsius and depends on the rate of Celsius and depends on the rate of infusion infusion

The gas vent filter is designed to remove The gas vent filter is designed to remove micro bubbles of gas from the line that micro bubbles of gas from the line that results from the IV fluids being heated results from the IV fluids being heated
