    AbstractThe Ohmeda 9000 syringe pump was developed in response to the need for an infusion apparatus to administer intravenous anaesthetic agents. It incorporates a bolus facility for the rapid, controlled delivery of loading infusions, or incremental dosing over a background maintenance infusion, and may be interfaced with a controller for computer-driven infusions. The Ohmeda 9000 pump has undergone bench testing and detailed evaluation in clinical practice using a variety of syringe sizes and makes. It is capable of accurate delivery over a range of infusion rates provided the recommended manufacturers' syringes are used with the appropriate pump setting. The pump was easy to use and reliable in clinical research and routine clinical practice. It should find its niche as the first genuinely 'anaesthetist-friendly' infusion pump.
