Danish term or phrase: kolbe
This comes up in a report about a patient's PTCA or PCI. The patient has been given Reopro (abciximab) as an infusion for a thrombosis. Details of who started the infusion are given followed by 'kolbe lagt'. The report is written rather short-hand, so there is no further context.
I can only think of a bed bottle, but think it should probably relate to the infusion.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Asker: Thank you for suggesting an answer. I am not sure that kolbe is used for infusion bag, even though in this context the translation would fit.
