Smart pumps vs. human hands: which keeps critically ill Patients' blood pressure stable?

NCT ID NCT01127152

Summary

This study tested whether automatic 'smart' syringe pumps are safer than manual pumps when nurses need to replace empty medication syringes for critically ill patients. It involved 50 intensive care patients receiving a common blood pressure medication called noradrenaline. Researchers measured how often each pump method caused dangerous drops in blood pressure during syringe changes.
