    FIGURE 1. 

    Experimental setup for 4-pump system. Shown are the 4 pumps (A) and the 4 lines (B). Similar setups were used for 2-, 3-, and 5-pump systems. All IVAC 3000P syringe pumps were maintained on the same horizontal plane to ensure that gravity did not affect infusion rates.

    Graph of infusion data. Each line represents 1 pump activated for the initial 30 min, immediately followed by activation of the additional pump or pumps. Fluctuations increase as the additional pumps are added.

    5 pumps16.9
    • Fluctuation for a single pump running 30 min in each trial of 2–5 pumps ranged from 2.9% to 3.9%. This fluctuation increased significantly when 1 or more pumps were added in each trial (15.7%–16.9%).
