Abstract:

A medical fluid delivery system having color coding or other non-textual indicia which associates a medicinal fluid delivery device with a corresponding medicinal fluid. The medicinal fluid delivery system comprises a medicinal fluid delivery device, a medicinal fluid container, and non-textual indicia. A non-textual indicium is integrated in the medicinal fluid delivery device, and a corresponding non-textual indicium is integrated in the medicinal fluid container. The non-textual indicium associates the delivery device with the container, and hence the medicinal fluid contained therein. The non-textual indicium can be the color of the medicinal fluid delivery device, and the corresponding non-textual indicium can be the color of the medicinal fluid container. The non-textual indicium can include a chemical indicator strip having an exposed reactant surface configured to display a particular color when exposed to a medicinal fluid.
