Abstract In order to perform better scientific researches on fluid resuscitation, total parenteral nutrition and continuous drug administration in rats, we developed a set of rat infusion device. The device, the characteristics of reasonable design, simple operation, low cost, good practicability, and making it by oneself or buying a whole set, can not only assure rats to run around, drink water, eat food freely, but also insure continuous infusion and drug administration during the experimental study of rats.

目前,由于缺乏能确保鼠在自由活动情况下能给鼠持续输液或给药的途径以及相应的输液设备,尚难以在鼠等小实验动物中开展体液支持、静脉营养支持、静脉内持续给药等科学研究和临床验证[1~4]。国外虽有类似的设备,但价格太昂贵。为此,我们在这方面作了一些努力和探索,设计出了一套适合国情的鼠用连续输液装置,为国内科研人员开展此项目的研究提供了一种实用的实验手段。
