SafeBreak - Vascular
SafeBreak Vascular is a Force-Activated Separation Device. It is intended to separate when excessive tension is exerted across a peripheral IV administration set. When SafeBreak Vascular separates, fluid flow is stopped from the infusion pump and blood flow is stopped from the patient’s IV catheter.SafeBreak Vascular is intended to aid in reduction of peripheral IV mechanical complications requiring IV replacement.SafeBreak Vascular is intended to be used on peripheral IV catheters in adults and adolescent populations eighteen (18) years of age and older receiving intermittent or continuous infusions with an electronic pump.
Details
Device typeLuer/Luer breakaway connector: A small, non-powered, noninvasive, linear Luer connector intended to connect between a percutaneous catheter (e.g., intravenous (IV) catheter, nephrostomy catheter) and external tubing (e.g., drainage tubing, IV line) to facilitate safe disconnection if excessive tension is placed on the catheter or tubing (e.g., unintentional tugging or pulling). The safe disconnection feature/force activated separation mechanism is designed to reduce patient injury and includes valves to prevent fluid loss and contamination. This is a single-use device.
