Description
The Polymed Polyflush Pre-filled Syringe contains 10 ml of 0.9% Sodium Chloride solution and is intended for the flushing of indwelling vascular access devices. This ready-to-use sterile syringe helps to streamline clinical workflows by removing the need for manual saline preparation. Its design aims to reduce the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infections (CR-BSI) and cross-contamination. The consistent 10 ml syringe diameter is designed to generate lower pressure, which helps in avoiding catheter damage.
Pre-filled and Ready-to-Use: The syringe comes pre-filled with sterile 0.9% Sodium Chloride solution, saving time and reducing the number of steps in the flushing procedure. Reduces Infection Risk: Designed to minimize the risk of Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CR-BSI) by avoiding potential contamination from manual syringe preparation. Prevents Catheter Damage: Features a consistent 10 ml barrel diameter that generates lower pressure compared to smaller syringes, reducing the risk of damaging the catheter during flushing. Enhances Clinician Safety: Eliminates the need for needles during flush preparation, which helps in preventing needle-stick injuries among healthcare professionals. Material Composition: The syringe is free from PVC, DEHP, and Latex, making it a suitable option for patient use.
