Frequently asked questions
Is this container validated for the APEX™ Compounding System?
Yes, this container is specifically validated for exclusive use with the APEX™ Compounding System.
It is the only B. Braun dual-chamber final container validated for integration with the APEX™ system, making it ideal for the safe preparation of Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) solutions.
Key features supporting the compounding process include:
- Dual Chamber Design: Safely maintains incompatible components, such as lipids and dextrose/amino acids, separate during storage.
- High-Speed Capability: Features large-bore tubing optimized to facilitate efficient, high-speed compounding operations.
- Easy Activation: The contents are mixed for final use by simply removing the green hanging bar and shaking the bag.
What fluids does the dual chamber safely separate?
The dual-chamber design is engineered specifically for the preparation of Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) solutions. It safely maintains the physical separation of incompatible components until immediate mixing is required.
The bag is configured to segregate:
- Lipids (fats)
- Dextrose and Amino Acids (the base solution)
This separation is critical for maintaining the stability of the solution during transport and storage.
Mixing is straightforward: simply remove the green hanging bar and shake the bag thoroughly to combine the solutions. Note that this container is validated exclusively for use with the APEX™ Compounding System.
Is the container latex-free?
Yes, the B. Braun Apex EVA Dual Chamber Final Containers Bag is latex-free.
The components are constructed using an EVA formulation and do not contain natural rubber latex, making it suitable for medical applications where latex exposure must be avoided.
Does this bag offer a long shelf life?
Yes, the B. Braun Apex EVA Dual Chamber Final Containers Bag is designed for long-term usability.
It offers a total shelf life of 36 months, ensuring the bags maintain their sterility and integrity during storage.
How is the dual-chamber mixture easily prepared?
The B. Braun Apex Dual Chamber Bag is designed for simple, on-demand mixing, which ensures sensitive components (like lipids and dextrose/amino acids) remain safely segregated during storage and transport.
Mixing is straightforward and requires the following two steps:
- Remove the green hanging bar. (This action breaks the internal seal separating the two chambers.)
- Thoroughly shake the bag until the contents are completely combined into a homogeneous solution.
This method is specifically validated for use with the APEX™ Compounding System.
Is high-quality EVA material used?
Yes, the B. Braun Apex Dual Chamber Container is constructed using a specialized EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) formulation.
This high-quality material is essential for maintaining product integrity and safety, offering key benefits for clinical settings:
- Latex-Free: The EVA formulation ensures all container components are free from natural rubber, providing a latex-free solution.
- System Validation: This specific material is validated for seamless integration and high-speed compounding exclusively with the APEX™ Compounding System.
- Longevity: The sterile container offers an extended total shelf life of 36 months from the date of manufacture.
Are various container volumes available?
Yes, the B. Braun Apex EVA Dual Chamber Final Containers Bag is available in three distinct volume configurations to accommodate various compounding needs:
- 1500 mL
- 3000 mL
- 4000 mL
All containers are sterile and sold by the case, with 42 units included per case. They also feature a total shelf life of 36 months.
Is the bag designed for high-speed compounding?
Yes, this container bag is engineered to support rapid processes. It features large-bore tubing specifically optimized to facilitate high-speed compounding operations when used with the APEX™ Compounding System.
Is the container sterile for compounding?
Yes, the B. Braun Apex EVA Dual Chamber Final Containers Bag is supplied sterile.
This is a key feature, as the container is specifically engineered for critical parenteral admixture applications and integration with the APEX™ Compounding System.
Does the dual-chamber design ensure component stability?
Yes, the dual-chamber design is specifically engineered to ensure the stability and integrity of incompatible fluid components during storage and transport.
Here is how this feature benefits the solution:
- Separation: It safely maintains solutions like lipids and dextrose/amino acids in separate chambers, preventing interaction until ready for use.
- Stability: This preserves the stability and potency of the individual components over the container’s 36-month shelf life.
- Mixing: When compounding is required, mixing is straightforward. You simply remove the green hanging bar and shake the bag to combine the chambers.
