- Used primarily with syringe pumps for the accurate delivery of IV fluids and medications
- This set provides an extension to the existing IV line, allowing for flexibility and safe, uninterrupted flow
Uses
- Syringe pump IV therapy:
- Designed specifically for use with syringe pumps, where the microbore tubing ensures precise and controlled flow rates crucial for accurate medication delivery
- Fluid and medication administration:
- Ideal for the administration of fluids, medications, and other solutions in a consistent and controlled manner
- Various clinical settings:
- Widely used in hospitals, intensive care units (ICUs), outpatient clinics, and emergency departments, especially in cases requiring precise dosing like pediatric care
- Extending IV lines:
- Provides additional length to the IV setup, which offers greater flexibility and allows the pump to be positioned away from the patient's bedside
Features
- Microbore tubing:
- The small internal diameter (0.02" ID) tubing helps to minimize the priming volume, which is critical for accurate medication delivery and reducing waste
- Tubing Length:
- Approximately 36 inches (91 cm) in length, providing ample reach and flexibility
- Connectors:
- Features a female luer lock connector at one end and a distal male luer lock connector for secure and leak-proof connections to catheters and infusion systems
- Priming Volume:
- Low priming volume of approximately 0.3mL
- Safety Materials:
- The fluid path is non-PVC and not made with natural rubber latex, reducing the risk of chemical exposure (like DEHP) and allergic reactions for sensitive patients
- Flow Control:
- Designed without a clamp or filter for uninterrupted operation and smooth flow
- Sterile and Single-Use:
- Each set is sterile and intended for single use, ensuring hygiene and minimizing contamination risks
Benefits
- Accuracy in Medication Delivery:
- The microbore tubing and low priming volume ensure high precision in delivering small or sensitive medication doses, which is vital for patient safety and treatment outcomes
- Enhanced Patient Safety:
- The PVC-free and latex-free materials reduce the risk of chemical exposure and allergic reactions
- Workflow Efficiency:
- The flexible length and secure connections enhance workflow efficiency by allowing for a reliable and adaptable IV setup
- Reduced Contamination Risk:
- The sterile, single-use design ensures the highest safety standards during procedures, minimizing the risk of infection or contamination
