A multiple fluid delivery system usable for the delivery of intravenous fluids to a patient from a plurality of fluid sources includes flexible tubing members for coupling the sources to a fluid junction member. The fluid junction member, wherein little or no interfluid mixing occurs, is coupled by an output conduit to a controllable pump. Output from the pump, via a further fluid flow conduit, can be coupled to the patient\s catheter. The system can multiplex a plurality of different fluids. Spaced apart sequences of fluid quanta are injected into the output conduit from the fluid flow junction. The fluids are either mixed, or not, in the output conduit as desired. Operator interaction and control of the system can occur either through a display screen or by means of a bar code sensor. Hard copy records can be provided of fluid flow delivery schedules or other related information.

A multi-fluid delivery system for delivering a plurality of preselected fluids from a plurality of fluid flow sources to a fluid flow delivery port comprising: a plurality of deformable flow means for receiving fluid flow from the plurality of fluid flow sources; a plurality of flow control means with each of said deformable flow means closable by a corresponding one of said flow control means; means for combining fluid flow from selected of said flow means to form a combined fluid flow output combination at said delivery port; and programmable control means, coupled to each of said flow control means for storing, at least, one required fluid flow delivery schedule and for actuating one or more of said flow control means such that said selected fluids flow into said combining means in accordance with said stored, fluid flow delivery schedule with said programmable control means including means for storing information relating to inter-fluid compatibility and for displaying an indicium of compatibility between at least two of said specified fluid types prior to activating any of said flow control means.
