Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to use of a filter in an infusion pump system. The filter can be comprised of a rigid porous plastic material that provides a three-dimensional tortuous path of small pore size that captures particulate as it flows through the filter. Filtration efficiency can be balanced with flow restriction dependent upon pore size of the filter. A range of pore sizes is achievable.
