Abstract:
Flush syringe assemblies capable of creating pulsatile movement of the plunger rod as it moves in the distal direction within a syringe barrel, while preventing overpressurization of the catheter are provided. An exemplary flush syringe assembly includes a syringe barrel with a first pulsing element and a chamber with flush solution, a plunger rod with a stopper and a second pulsing element that interacts with the first pulsing element to provide an engagement force that causes pulsatile movement of the plunger rod and a thumb press slidably attached to the plunger rod with a pulse control element. The pulse control element is compressible to create a compression force that is greater than the engagement force of the first pulsing element and the second pulsing element.

Claim (Index 5):
The flush syringe assembly of  claim 2 , wherein the thumb press further comprises a proximal end, a distal end, a plurality of engagement tabs disposed at the distal end of the thumb press, and the plunger rod further comprises a plurality of openings having a distal end, a proximal end and a length between the distal end and the proximal for receiving the engaging tabs, the engagement tabs configured to slide along the length of the plurality of openings as the compression force is applied to the thumb press in the distal direction and the compression force is released in the first position.
