The extension sets with Caresite® valve are additionally used to extend infusion lines by attaching them to a luer lock connection.
Flexible needle-free extension lines allow manipulation away from the injection site and reduce Vascular Access complications.
This ensures treatment patient by infusion, transfusion, aspiration of blood samples and intermittent injection.
Moreover, it simplifies an aseptic technique during the change of IV administration sets. This benefits patients as well as healthcare workers.
The tubing with small internal diameter minimizes the contained volume and benefits the usage for paediatric/neonate patients.
ADVANTAGES
Luer-Slip and Luer-Lock compatible
Easy access for Luer-Slip and Luer-Lock connections. Suitable for several IV procedures (e.g. Luer Lock connections, etc.).
Non-removable slide clamp
Non-removable slide clamps prevent the unintended removal by patients and reduce the risk that patients swallow the clamps (e.g. small children on pediatric wards).
Rotating Spin-Lock connector
Designed to minimise twisting of tubing.
High pressure resistant
The following Caresite® Extension Sets are suitable for use with power injectors which allows more flexibility:
REF 470100 – Smallbore Single Extension Set
They have a pressure resistance up to 300 psi at 10mL/sec.
Average fluid displacement 0.029 ml (positive)
Designed to minimize slips and touch contamination
Ergonomic design provides easy access by allowing a good grip and easy connection.
Back-check valve
Some of our Caresite® Extension Sets have a back-check valve within its composition.
The back-check valve prevents backflow of fluids and blood and therefore it offers safety during parallel pressure and gravity infusions
Patient population
The device can be used for all patients for which infusion therapy is prescribed. No gender or age-related limitations. There are no patient population restrictions.
