TouchMedical Overview
TouchMedical has developed a closed-loop, handle-free syringe medical pump. This special syringe-based pump is specifically designed to provide a safe, small, easy-to-use, and inexpensive alternative for adults and children who need to use pumps or syringes to take their medicine on a daily basis. TouchMedicals alternative to current syringe drug delivery can be particularly beneficial for children because of the small size and high accuracy of the pump.
