Description
The B Braun Intrafix Safe Set (P) is an intravenous administration set designed for delivering fluids and medications. It is intended for both gravity-fed infusions and pressure infusions with compatible pumps. The set incorporates features to enhance safety and workflow efficiency for healthcare providers. Its construction with DEHP-free materials makes it a considered option for infusion therapy across various patient demographics, including adults, children, and neonates.
AirStop Filter: An integrated filter membrane in the drip chamber prevents air from entering the infusion line if the fluid container empties, which helps avert air embolism.
PrimeStop Cap: A special protective cap with a hydrophobic membrane facilitates automatic, leak-free priming of the tube, keeping the system closed and sterile until it is connected to the patient.
15 Micron Filter: The set includes a fluid filter with a 15 µm pore size that is designed to retain particulate matter from the infusion solution.
DEHP-Free Tubing: The tubing is manufactured without the plasticizer DEHP, addressing safety considerations for patients during infusion therapy.
Secure Luer Lock Connector: Features a screw-tight Luer-lock fitting that ensures a firm and secure connection to the patient's venous access device, minimizing the risk of accidental disconnection.
