The authors discuss factors which influence the dispensing of infusion solutions by means of infusion sets regulated by a button. They draw attention to the fact that by means of infusion sets IS 103 and TS 203 accurate dispensing is not possible as the rate of flow changes markedly with the time of administration of the infusion. On the other hand, in the EXADROP dispenser marked slowing down of the infusion in relation of time does not occur and the authors recommend it therefore for common use in standard departments.
