High speed rinsing solution application

A method for high speed rinsing solution application, comprising:

• providing a plurality of carriages coupled to a track, wherein each of the carriages includes a respective catheter delivery mechanism configured to deliver a rinsing solution to a circulatory system of an animal;
• propelling the carriages along the track via a carousel drive system such that the carriages travel along the track in a circuit having a plurality of circumferential positions, wherein the plurality of positions include a first position, a second position, a third position, and a fourth position;
• placing a catheter of the catheter delivery mechanism into a circulatory system of a first animal at the first position;
• delivering the rinsing solution into the circulatory system of the first animal between the first position and the second position;
• removing the catheter from the circulatory system of the first animal at the second position;
• washing the catheter at the third position;
• sanitizing the catheter at the fourth position;
• and
• placing the catheter into a circulatory system of a second animal at the first position.

An apparatus for high speed rinsing solution application, comprising:

• an operator side and a sanitizing side;
• a substructure having an elliptical track;
• a catheter delivery system including a plurality of carriages coupled to the track, wherein each of the carriages includes a respective catheter delivery mechanism;
• a carousel drive system configured to drive the carriages such that the carriages circulate about the substructure on the track alternately through the operator side and the sanitizing side;
• a rotary timing valve positioned above a central portion of the substructure, the rotary timing valve including a plurality of outlets each positioned at a respective radial position on the rotary timing valve, wherein each of the plurality of outlets is connected to a respective catheter delivery mechanism by a hose, wherein a portion of the plurality of outlets of the rotary timing valve on the operator side is configured to output a rinsing solution to a portion of the plurality of catheter delivery mechanisms on the operator side;
• and
• a hose table positioned between the rotary timing valve and the substructure and configured to support the hoses, the hose table including a first elevated lip on the operator side and a second elevated lip on the sanitizing side.
