PROCESSO DE VERIFICACAO CONTINUA DA OPERACAO DE UM CONJUNTO DE FORNECIMENTO E DISPOSITIVO PARA A REALIZACAO DESTE PROCESSO

A method of continuous monitoring of a delivery system consisting of a volumetric pump (1), an infusion control unit, an electronic measurement unit and an outlet catheter provided with a measuring element, and a device therefor. The method is distinguished by the fact that after every single cycle of the pump the actual pressure and/or the volume of delivery is measured, preferably continuously, in the catheter by measuring the amplitude of the electric signal coming from the measuring element (1) and depending on the pressure and/or the volume of the delivery of the pump and then this measured signal is compared to preset reference values, e.g. in an analyzing system (5). The delivery systems are preferably for insulin administration when treating type-I diabetes and also for analytical laboratories, the chemical and pharmaceutical industries and the like.
