Fastflo 

Revolutionize in-hospital code blue interventions with a user-friendly, pre-loaded crystalloid rapid infuser.

A pre-loaded and easy to use Crystalloid Rapid infuser

Project Description:

FastFlo is a revolutionary crystalloid rapid infusion device designed to enhance patient care and expedite fluid delivery during Code Blue emergencies. Crafted with direct input from primary users such as ER and ICU nurses and first responders, the device is tailored to meet critical needs identified through user interviews. FastFlo boasts preloaded convenience, equipped with a minimum of two 1L saline bags, eliminating the need for time-consuming bag retrieval. Its setup time is remarkably efficient, taking less than a minute, allowing healthcare professionals to focus on immediate patient care. With simplified operation, FastFlo requires less than five button presses to initiate fluid delivery—a substantial reduction compared to traditional devices like Alaris pumps and pressure bags. What sets FastFlo apart is its unmatched preparedness; unlike existing rapid infusion devices, it comes primed and pre-loaded with crystalloid fluids, significantly reducing setup and initiation time. This translates into a remarkable reduction in patient-to-intervention time, ensuring swift and immediate response in critical situations. In the demanding environment of Code Blue scenarios, FastFlo exceeds expectations, offering healthcare professionals a reliable, user-friendly, and expedited solution for rapid fluid resuscitation, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
