Methods and devices for monitoring and/or controlling delivery of a fluid to a patient monitor a level of the fluid and generate an alarm and/or block flow of the fluid through a flexible delivery tube to the patient in response to detecting that the fluid level has dropped below a predetermined level. A device for monitoring and/or controlling delivery of the fluid to a patient is removeably mountable to a fluid delivery assembly having the delivery tube. When the device is configured to control delivery of the fluid, the device automatically reconfigures from a first configuration in which fluid is allowed to flow through the delivery tube to a second configuration in which the delivery tube is in a deformed state via the device to block flow of fluid through the delivery tube upon the device detecting that the fluid level is below the predetermined level.
A61M 39/28 - Clamping means for squeezing flexible tubes, e.g. roller clamps
A61M 5/168 - Means for controlling media flow to the body or for metering media to the body, e.g. drip meters, counters
A61M 5/36 - Devices for bringing media into the body in a subcutaneous, intra-vascular or intramuscular wayAccessories therefor, e.g. filling or cleaning devices, arm rests with means for eliminating or preventing injection or infusion of air into body
A61M 5/14 - Infusion devices, e.g. infusing by gravityBlood infusionAccessories therefor
A61M 5/40 - Devices for bringing media into the body in a subcutaneous, intra-vascular or intramuscular wayAccessories therefor, e.g. filling or cleaning devices, arm rests with means for eliminating or preventing injection or infusion of air into body using low-level float-valve to cut off media flow from reservoir
