The Gairdner Hospital Automatic Pressure Regulator was developed to deliver a constant preset gas pressure for the continuous inflation of infusion pump cuffs or pneumatic tourniquets. It has been found to be economical, safe, reliable and easy to use. The device facilitates both continuous flushing of catheters and rapid intravenous infusions especially during emergency situations. It may also be used in other clinical situations where a continuous gas supply at a preset constant pressure is required.
