APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING DRUG INFUSION AND METHOD USING THE SAME
First Claim
1. A drug infusion control apparatus comprising:
- a drug supplying unit comprising an opening/closing valve;
a drug infusion unit for infusing a drug supplied from the drug supplying unit into experimental animals; and
an infusion amount controller for controlling the opening/closing valve of the drug supplying unit in accordance with a signal from an infusion switch of the drug infusion unit,wherein the infusion amount controller comprisesan infusion amount storage database storing data on weights of the experimental animals and an infusion amount, anda controller that controls the opening/closing valve to infuse the drug infusion amount calculated based on the weight data of the experimental animals stored in the infusion amount storage database into the experimental animals in accordance with a signal from the infusion switch.

Abstract
A drug infusion control apparatus and method that can improve precision of experiments and thus improve reliability of data obtained from experiments on experimental animals by automatically calculating an infusion amount of a drug in accordance with weights of the experimental animals included in a variety of experimental groups and infusing the calculated amount of the drug into the experimental animals are provided. The drug infusion control method includes calculating and storing a drug infusion amount using weight data of experimental animals according to a preset formula, loading data on the drug infusion amount data that is stored, determining an operation time of an opening/closing valve, receiving an operation signal from an infusion switch, opening the opening/closing valve for a predetermined time, and repeatedly infusing a drug in response to the loaded data by a preset value.
