Devices and instruments for infusion

Description

A framework agreement for the procurement of infusion pumps administration sets and associated products to provide the intravenous delivery of solutions and bloods to a patient. This will include but not limited to: 1) Electrical and battery-operated infusion pumps – examples include volumetric pumps, syringe pumps, patient controlled analgesia pumps, anesthetic pumps, epidural pumps; 2) Pump dedicated administration sets; 3) Gravity administration sets – examples include solution, blood and burette sets; 4) Disposable infusion pumps. Precise quantities are unknown. It is anticipated that initial expenditure will be in the region of GBP 66 500 000 to GBP 80 000 000 in the first year of this framework agreement, however this is approximate only and the values may vary depending on the requirements of those bodies purchasing under the framework agreement. This lot is for the supply of electrical and battery powered infusion pumps for the administration of fluids, drugs, blood and nutrients. Pump types include/ • volumetric pumps, • syringe pumps, • anesthetic pumps, • patient controlled analgesia pumps, • epidural pumps, • ambulatory volumetric pumps, and • ambulatory syringe drivers. This lot is for the supply of administration sets which are dedicated to specific manufacturer’s volumetric pumps. Products within this Lot will include: • solution sets, • oncology sets, • blood sets, • burette sets, • epidural sets, • medication cassettes, • PCA sets, • secondary sets. This lot is for the supply of gravity administration sets. They are a device used as part of a system to administer and filter blood and/or blood components to a patient. Products within this lot will include: • gravity solution sets, • gravity blood sets, • gravity burette sets, • gravity blood and blood derivatives, • gravity secondary sets. This lot is for the supply of disposable infusion pumps. Products within this lot are single use, non-electrically driven infusion pumps including, but shall not be limited to: • continuous pump, delivers continuous infusion of medications, • patient controlled Analgesia pump, delivers medications with both continuous and bolus doses, and • multi-rate pump, delivers a variety of flow rates which can be adjusted by switching the regulator during the infusion.
