Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method for determining syringe parameters. It encompasses, as a first step, the providing of a medical syringe pump with a syringe receptacle having a syringe inserted herein, a drive unit for a slide, a counting device for counting motor steps, at least one sensor, a control device and a storage device. The method as described herein also encompasses, as further steps, moving the slide successively at different positions corresponding to known nominal volumes of the syringe. In a further step, the difference between these two positions is determined and, finally, optionally a number of motor steps of the drive unit of the syringe pump is calculated per nominal volume unit with respect to the inserted syringe.
