Emerging Innovation: The Infusion Systems Pipeline
The infusion systems market is rapidly evolving, and the device pipeline offers plenty of promise for healthcare providers, manufacturers, and equipment planners. From smart, connected pumps to home-based infusion devices, the next wave of solutions aims to optimize safety, flexibility, and patient mobility.
Key Themes in the Pipeline
Smart Pumps with IoT Connectivity — More infusion systems are being designed with integrated dose-error reduction software, network connectivity for remote monitoring, and analytics to reduce medication mistakes.
Home & Ambulatory Infusion Devices — As care shifts to outpatient settings and home-care models expand, manufacturers are advancing portable, wearable infusion pumps that support mobility while maintaining precision.
Disposable/Single-Use Systems — To reduce infection risk and improve cost-effectiveness, single-use pump cassettes and infusion sets are gaining traction in the development pipeline.
