Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9634651A1] An apparatus (30) for accurately infusing medicinal agents into an ambulatory patient at specific rates over extended periods of time. The apparatus (30) is of a compact, low profile laminate construction and includes an elastic distendable membrane (34), which, in cooperation with a thin planar base (32) defines a fluid chamber (46) having a fluid outlet. Disposed within the fluid chamber (46) is a thin fluid permeable member (66) which precisely controls the rate of fluid flow through the fluid outlet. The apparatus (30) also includes a highly novel fluid flow indicator (104) that provides a readily discernible visual indication of fluid flow through the apparatus (30).
