Abstract
In a machine for extracorporeal blood treatment, a syringe pump () for infusion of an anticoagulant comprises a support () for the syringe, a pusher (), a sensor of the pushing force of the pusher (), and a control unit () for guiding the pusher () in accordance with the force measured by the sensor. The support comprises a series of interchangeable gripping elements (), each of which defines a housing for a syringe having a different diameter, the housing having a longitudinal axis which, for all of the interchangeable gripping elements in the series, is always in the same position in relation to the pusher. The invention provides a dialysis machine with a pump that is easily and rapidly adaptable for syringes over a wide range of sizes.
