We have used teh Curlin pump in home infusion for over a year now - it is nice to be able to use one pump for all therapies, the patients like it - there was a learning curve for us and our long term TPN patients but they adjusted well this pump and like it - we have not really had any problems with it.

>>> "Kramer, Nancy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 11/16/2005 5:30 PM >>> The Curlin pump was designed by engineers who had originally worked on the 6060, however it is a very different pump and not prone to the same issues that plagued the 6060. You'll see similarities between the pumps when you look at the Curlin, however as soon as you open the tubing door you'll start to notice how very different the Curlin is. It's also helpful if the rep brings a model that can be opened completely so you can see the internal architecture of the pump compared to the 6060. We had an opportunity to evaluate the Curlin on patients several years ago, and had no issues with pump operation or durability.

I am also concerned b/c we have been using Baxter 6060s and we have a rep coming in tomorrow to demonstrate the Curlin. I obviously would want to avoid a repeat of this experience.

We have a call in to our rep about the Bodyguard. Also we probably look at others. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2005 11:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [vascular] Baxter 6060 pump recall With the 6060 recall, I am eager to hear from other home infusion providers as to your new pump of choice. We looked at the Curlin pump some time ago, but at that time we not real interested in switching pumps. Can anyone give any feedback on the Curlin? Thank you.
