Abstract
A cardioplegic agent delivery system comprises a syringe pump for providing cardioplegic agent into a carrier fluid of a perfusion system, a flow sensor for sensing a flow of the carrier fluid, and an interlock responsive to the flow sensor. The interlock prevents operation of the syringe pump in the absence of carrier fluid flow sensed by the flow sensor. This provides increased safety in a cardioplegic agent delivery system.
