- Specialized catheter extension set
Purpose:
- Designed to extend the length of an IV line and to withstand the high pressures generated by a power injector
- Used to infuse fluids or medications, often for diagnostic procedures like CT scans or MRIs that require the rapid, high-pressure injection of contrast media
Features:
-
Power Injectable (325 psi):
- This is the most critical feature
- The tubing and connections are designed and tested to handle the high pressures (up to 325 psi) of automated fluid delivery systems, a requirement for many diagnostic imaging procedures
-
No Port or Injection Site:
- A key distinguishing feature of this specific model is that it does not have an injection port or needle-free connector
- It is a straight, simple extension set
-
Male Luer Lock Adapter:
- Has a standard male luer lock adapter with a retractable collar, which ensures a secure and leak-proof connection to the IV catheter or other devices
-
Standard Bore Tubing:
- Has a standard bore, making it suitable for a wider range of patients and fluid delivery rates
- Priming Volume
- 0.55mL which is the amount of fluid needed to fill the set before it reaches the patient
