French term

dispositif de perfusion...

French to English Medical
This sentence is from a text about the risk of infection from catheterisation and the prevention of it. It is part of the guidelines for prevention of infection in haemodialysis:
"Changer les domes et les dispositifs de perfusion controlee toutes les 4 jours, avec l'ensemble du dispositif de perfusion continue a faible debit."
It is the last part of the sentence I am having trouble with. Any ideas?? HTH Nick

...with the continuous drip apparatus at a low flow level.

I think the basic idea is pretty clear. This is merely another phrasing possibility that may sound a bit more natural.

controlled drip device

I think the complete term is probably "dispositif de perfusion controlée". (Controlled either by the patient, increasingly common in the case of analgesics (PCA), or electronically). Does your text provide sufficient info for you to decide whether or not you could use "controlled pump" which I came across in my search and which would appear to be synonymous, but then I am no specialist.
