Abstract
An infusion pump assembly includes a reservoir assembly configured to contain an infusible fluid. A motor assembly is configured to act upon the reservoir assembly and dispense at least a portion of the infusible fluid contained within the reservoir assembly. Processing logic is configured to control the motor assembly. A primary power supply is configured to provide primary electrical energy to at least a portion of the processing logic. A backup power supply is configured to provide backup electrical energy to the at least a portion of the processing logic in the event that the primary power supply fails to provide the primary electrical energy to the at least a portion of the processing logic.
Claims24
An infusion pump assembly comprising:
- a reservoir assembly configured to contain an infusible fluid;
- a motor assembly configured to act upon the reservoir assembly and dispense at least a portion of the infusible fluid contained within the reservoir assembly;
- processing logic configured to control the motor assembly;
- a primary power supply configured to provide primary electrical energy to at least a portion of the processing logic;
- and
- a backup power supply configured to provide backup electrical energy to the at least a portion of the processing logic in the event that the primary power supply fails to provide the primary electrical energy to the at least a portion of the processing logic.
An infusion pump assembly comprising:
- a reservoir assembly configured to contain an infusible fluid;
- a motor assembly configured to act upon the reservoir assembly and dispense at least a portion of the infusible fluid contained within the reservoir assembly;
- processing logic configured to control the motor assembly;
- a first battery configured to provide primary electrical energy to at least a portion of the processing logic;
- and
- a super capacitor assembly configured to provide backup electrical energy to the at least a portion of the processing logic in the event that the first battery fails to provide the primary electrical energy to the at least a portion of the processing logic.
