The Infu-Stat™ Disposable Pressure Infuser, 500mL (MPN: MTM-305) by Mason Tayler is a single-patient-use pressure infusion bag built for rapid IV fluid and blood product delivery when lower volumes are required. The 500mL capacity makes this the right choice for pediatric fluid boluses, controlled adult infusions, and any scenario where a smaller volume bag is indicated. Like all Infu-Stat models, it features a built-in pressure gauge with a safety valve that automatically releases air at 325mmHg to prevent over-inflation. Specs snapshot: 500mL capacity, one-hand stopcock operation, color-coded gauge, large bore stopcock, latex free, CE marked.
Reusable pressure infusers require decontamination between patients and are subject to bladder failure, gauge drift, and valve degradation over time. Each cleaning cycle adds labor cost and turnaround time while still carrying residual contamination risk. The Infu-Stat eliminates that cycle entirely. A fresh infuser for every patient means consistent gauge accuracy, reliable valve function, and zero risk of pathogen transfer from a previous patient. For EMS systems and emergency departments running multiple resuscitations per shift, disposable infusers reduce workflow steps and keep units back in service faster. At $12.50 per unit, the per-patient cost is often less than the labor required to reprocess a reusable device once.
The 500mL Infu-Stat is used whenever gravity-fed IV flow rates are insufficient and the clinical situation calls for a lower volume infusion. Pediatric fluid resuscitation protocols frequently specify smaller volume boluses where a 500mL bag is the standard starting point. In adult patients, the 500mL size is appropriate for controlled blood product administration, medication infusions requiring pressure assistance, and situations where the provider needs precise volume control without switching to a larger bag. The large hand bulb inflates the bag quickly with one hand, and the large bore stopcock allows rapid deflation when the infusion is complete or the bag needs to be changed. The write-on area on the bag surface allows providers to document patient identification and drug information directly on the device.
The Infu-Stat is engineered for simplicity under pressure. The color-coded gauge uses large printed numbers so providers can confirm infusion pressure at a glance, even in low-light ambulance compartments or crowded resuscitation bays. Each bag size uses a distinct color code for quick identification, preventing size selection errors during high-stress scenarios. The one-hand stopcock operation means a provider can manage the infuser while simultaneously performing other patient care tasks. The integrated hook allows the infuser to hang from an IV pole or ambulance hook during transport. Key specifications for the 500mL model:
The Infu-Stat gauge incorporates a safety valve that automatically releases air at 325mmHg. This prevents over-inflation and protects both the IV bag and the patient from excessive pressure.
The 500mL Infu-Stat is designed for situations requiring lower volume infusions. This includes pediatric fluid boluses, controlled blood product administration in adults, and any protocol where a 500mL IV bag is the indicated starting volume. Each size is color-coded so providers can identify the correct bag instantly.
The Infu-Stat is designed for single patient use only. It is disposable after each patient encounter to prevent cross-contamination and eliminate the cost and labor of cleaning and reprocessing reusable pressure infusers.
No. The Infu-Stat is latex free, making it safe for use on patients and by providers with latex sensitivities.
The Infu-Stat is available in three sizes: 500mL (MTM-305), 1000mL (MTM-310), and 3000mL (MTM-330E). Each size is color-coded for quick identification.
Yes. The large bore stopcock allows one-hand operation for both inflation and deflation. The large hand bulb inflates the bag rapidly, freeing the provider to manage other patient care tasks simultaneously.
Reusable pressure infusers require staff time for cleaning, decontamination, inspection, and repair. Bladders and gauges degrade over time and must be serviced or replaced. At $12.50 per unit, the Infu-Stat eliminates all reprocessing labor and maintenance cost while providing a fresh, accurate device for every patient.
