Abstract
A fluid infusion system is described. Certain embodiments include an infusion syringe assessment device that assesses one or more characteristics of an infusion syringe coupled to a fluid infusion pump during use. The system may include a fluid infusion pump configured to accept the infusion syringe. The fluid infusion pump may advance an infusion fluid to a test subject in accordance with an infusion routine based on one or more of the assessed characteristics of the infusion syringe. The infusion routine may include at least one rate, at least one volume, at least one start time, at least one end time, and/or at least one duration.

1-32. (canceled)
A fluid infusion system, comprising:
- a fluid infusion pump;
- a conduit configured to provide a path for delivery of one or more infusion fluids from an infusion fluid reservoir to a test subject;
- and
- a computer configured to assess a location of a trailing edge and/or a leading edge of one or more of the infusion fluids as the infusion fluids are advanced through the conduit.
A method of infusing a fluid into a test subject, comprising:
- advancing, using a fluid pump system, one or more infusion fluids to a test subject via a conduit;
- and
- assessing, using the fluid pump system, a location of a trailing edge and/or a leading edge of one or more of the infusion fluids as the infusion fluids are advanced through the conduit.
A method comprising:
- automatically varying, using a fluid infusion pump, the delivery rate and/or a start time of advancement of an infusion fluid such that the leading edge of a test article solution begins entry into a blood vessel, organ, or space of a test subject at an operator defined time point.
