Letter From the Editor


Pump It Up

This week's DOTmed Online News features a confluence of content on infusion pumps.

We are running online our industry sector report on infusion pumps from the August 2008 issue of our magazine DOTmed Business News, along with a companion piece, an exclusive briefing from leading OEMs on state-of-the-art smart pump technology.

As it turns out, KLAS has just published its smart pump research so you'll want to read about that, too.

In addition, we've got a profile of an independent service organization that specializes in pumps, and an unusual item on a company started by a nurse that makes a simple line separator for the patient's bedside. We also recently ran a story on an innovation to prevent IV mixups.

Whether it's the big OEM trends or small startups with great ideas, watch DOTmed for details.

See you next week.
