Frequently asked questions

How does the needleless design enhance safety?

The B. Braun CARESITE Needleless Connector is specifically designed to provide high levels of safety for both the patient and the clinician by focusing on sharps elimination and fluid management benefits.

Key Safety Enhancements:

  • Prevents Needlestick Injuries: The needleless design completely eliminates the need for sharps during the aspiration, injection, or gravity flow of fluids. This drastically reduces the risk of accidental needlestick injuries and potential exposure to bloodborne pathogens for healthcare professionals.
  • Positive Displacement Mechanism: This connector features positive displacement technology, which is engineered to minimize blood reflux into the catheter tip upon disconnection. This action helps prevent catheter occlusions and maintains the patency (openness) of the IV line.
  • Material Safety: The entire device is manufactured without DEHP or natural rubber latex, helping to minimize the risk of allergic reactions in patients.
Is the connector latex-free and DEHP-free?

Yes, the B. Braun CARESITE Needleless Connector is not made with DEHP or natural rubber latex. This makes it a safer choice for patients with sensitivities and helps reduce the risk of DEHP exposure during medical procedures.

What is the priming volume of this extension set?

The priming volume for the B. Braun CARESITE Needleless Connector with 5” Bonded Small Bore T-Port Extension Set is 0.3 mL.

What specific positive displacement connector is included?

The product features the B. Braun CARESITE Needleless Connector.

This is a positive displacement connector, which provides critical safety benefits by:

  • Minimizing Reflux: It is designed to minimize fluid displacement (reflux) when connecting or disconnecting, helping to protect the catheter lumen.
  • Reducing Occlusion Risk: This action contributes to a reduced risk of catheter occlusion, enhancing the reliability of IV administration.
  • Enabling Visual Check: The connector utilizes a clear housing, which allows healthcare professionals to perform easy visual inspection during fluid aspiration or injection.
What is the length of the extension set?

The extension set is 5 inches (13 cm) long, providing a convenient length for various medical applications.

What is the purpose of the removable slide clamp on the extension set?

The removable slide clamp is used for controlling the flow of fluids through the extension set, allowing for precise administration and interruption of flow when needed.

How does the rotating spin-lock ensure secure connection?

The secure connection is ensured by the rotating spin-lock male luer lock located on the Safeline injection site T-Port. This feature provides both security and ease of use during fluid administration:

  • High Security: The spin-lock forms a mechanical seal with female luer fittings, which actively prevents accidental disconnection and maintains a reliable, safe fluid pathway.
  • Prevents Twisting: The rotating design allows the lock to be tightened onto the mating connector without causing the attached 5-inch bonded tubing to twist or tangle, making setup easier for the clinician.
Is the CARESITE Needleless Connector fully sterile?

Yes, the B. Braun CARESITE Needleless Connector with the T-Port Extension Set is confirmed to be sterile.

This sterility ensures the safety and readiness of the device for immediate use in medical environments, facilitating the safe aspiration and administration of fluids. Additionally, this product features a long 36-month shelf life.
