摘要
Erroneous intravenous drug administration has a high probability of causing patient morbidity or mortality during anesthesia. Anesthesiologists are cognizant of this longstanding issue, which has prompted the development of a variety of different protocols and solutions designed to ameliorate the problem and ultimately improve patient outcomes. Unfortunately, no definitive solution has been developed yet. Our invention is a medical device designed to drastically reduce, and hopefully upon further development, refinement and subsequent iterations, completely eradicate the potential for medical errors involving medication misidentification and quantitative errors in anesthetic dosing and dispensing.
