Abstract

This paper describes a compact, battery-powered infuser that is light, unobtrusive and simple to operate. A novel direct-drive method is used to deliver intermittent boluses of hormone at predetermined time intervals via a special prefilled syringe. Normal pregnancy rates were achieved in anovulatory women when infused with luteinising hormone releasing hormone (LHRH).
