Infuvalve® is a back-check valve which helps to prevent reflux of infusion solutions during parallel infusion. It is an effective technical precautionary to raise safety to complex infusion systems.
Infuvalve® is a normally closed valve, to be opened with low pressure. It prevents backflow of fluids and blood into IV infusion line and performs against over-and under-dosage as well as against bolus infusions.
Easy access for Luer-Slip and Luer-Lock connections.
Compatible with MRI, no metal parts
Functioning in all positions
Infuvalve can be replaced according to CDC or national guidelines or hospital protocol.
The product can be used for all patients for which infusion therapy is prescribed. No gender or age-related limitations. Infuvalve can be used for adults, pediatrics and neonates.
Prevents retrograde flow into the gravity infusion so that it acts like a pressure alarm for the parallel infusion pump.
It performs against over- and under-dosage as well as against bolus infusions.
Minimum closing flow ≤ 0.1 ml/h
Opening pressure ≤ 20 mbar
Flow rate > 90 ml/minute G 40%
Flow rate > 100 ml/minute with 0.9% NaCl
Pressure resistance ≤ 2 bar
Not manufactured with DEHP, PVC, BPA or Latex/Natural rubber
Enables contamination-free handling ensured by double-sided protection caps
Forms a reliably tight seal in the event of the infusion stopping or a pressure build-up against the direction of flow.
