Summary

This small pilot study tested special wearable pumps (elastomeric pumps) to give antibiotics through a drip to hospital patients. The goal was to see if these pumps are safe, easy to use, and could save time and money compared to traditional methods. Nine adults with bacterial infections participated to help decide if a larger trial is worthwhile.
