An infusion system for transporting fluid into a patient and a method for integrity monitoring of the system. The infusion system includes one or more sources of fluids to be infused, such as pumps or reservoirs, and a plurality of hose lines that carry the fluid to an entry point at the patient. A signal generator introduces a pressure signal into the fluid and a sensor, spaced some distance from the signal generator, receives the sensor signal and generates an input signal based on the sensor signal and transmits the input signal to an evaluation circuit. Information transmitted to the evaluation circuit is displayed visually, the information relating to operating status of fluid sources and lines, as well as to flow rates, blockages, leaks, etc.
