Multi-Therapy Infusion Pump

1.0 Product Overview: This document outlines the requirements for a small, lightweight, and durable multi-therapy infusion pump designed for use in pre-hospital, aeromedical, and military environments. The Office of the Command Surgeon is seeking a portable device that offers a wide range of therapeutic applications in a compact and rugged form factor, capable of reliable function in demanding field conditions. The intended use for this device is for intravascular, subcutaneous, intra-arterial, epidural, and perineural infusions administered by licensed military healthcare professionals in clinical, ambulatory, and medical transport settings (both air and ground).

2.0 Core Capabilities and Specifications: The primary requirements for the infusion pump are focused on size, weight, and cube (SWaP) to ensure it can be seamlessly integrated into already existing medical pack-outs and ruck sacks.

Feature Required Specification
