INFUSION THERAPY: HISTORY, MODERNITY, PROSPECTS

Abstract

The article describes the historical aspects of the formation and development of infusion therapy since the. V century BC to the present day. After William Harvey created the theory of the circulatory system, attempts were made to inject various substances intravenously.
 Interesting data on the evolution of the syringe as a device for the introduction of various substances, from primitive, simple - to reusable and disposable. The history of the latter began in 1949, when the American Arthur Smith received the first US patent for a disposable glass syringe. Seven years later, in 1956, New Zealand veterinarian and pharmacist Colin Murdoch invented and patented a plastic disposable syringe.
 However, these developments are not very suitable for intravenous injections into productive animals, especially in livestock facilities. Some exceptions were only modifications of the syringe Jeanne. It was developed by the French physician Pierre-Marie Felix Jeanne in 1934 for a variety of medical procedures. Its initial volume was 150 ml. Over time, for veterinary purposes, this model began to be produced in volumes of 250 and 500 ml.
 Describes our own new experience in installing a technological line for the manufacture of solutions for veterinary medicine with their packaging in PVC bags in volumes of different formats (200, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 ml). It is possible to make solutions in packages of smaller (50, 100 ml) or larger volume (2 and 5 liters). Industrial production of 11 types of solutions is registered and mastered at the enterprise.
 Adhering to modern requirements for the quality of drugs, the material for the packages we have chosen a multilayer film based on polypropylene called SIFLEX PACK® Italian production. Tactical to the infusion procedure for animals, SIFLEX PACK® film packs are easy to use. They are an ideal alternative to glass or plastic containers and significantly reduce the cost of production of solutions and prevent contamination of medicinal solutions with indoor air microflora.
