ElastoMeric Infusion Pumps for Hospital AntibioTICs (EMPHATIC): A Feasibility Study
This proof of concept feasibility study shows that it may be feasible to use EMPs in the inpatient setting. There is potential to improve patient and staff experience; however, cost and residual volume are potential barriers to implementation, with further studies required.
