Description

B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcocks provide advanced needle-free protection against CRBSIs. Designed with patient safety in mind, the innovative ULTRAPORT series was developed in response to growing concerns about stopcock contamination. By taking infection control measures in the anesthesia work area these stopcocks may help reduce infections. In fact, disinfectable needle-free connectors are more effective than conventional caps and can prevent the passage of microorganisms in the catheter lumen.

Frequently asked questions

Do these stopcocks offer superior infection control?

Yes, these B. Braun ULTRAPORT stopcocks are specifically designed for advanced infection control to help prevent Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSIs).

Their superior protection is achieved through a fully integrated design:

  • Needle-Free Swabbable Valves: These specialized valves are integrated directly into the standard stopcock, offering superior disinfection efficacy compared to traditional protective caps.
  • Integrated Design: Eliminates the need for separate caps and reduces complexity.
  • Leak Management: The design helps prevent fluid leaks, minimizing contamination risk, even if the operational handle is inadvertently left open.

For enhanced safety, the product is supplied sterile and is not made with natural rubber latex.

Does this stopcock use advanced needle-free protection?

Yes, the B. Braun ULTRAPORT stopcocks are specifically engineered to provide advanced needle-free protection against Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSIs).

Key features ensuring superior infection control include:

  • Needle-Free Swabbable Valves: These valves are integrated directly into the stopcock and are proven more effective than conventional caps at preventing microorganisms from entering the catheter lumen.
  • Integrated Design: The design combines standard stopcock functionality with the swabbable ports, eliminating the need for separate caps and reducing contamination risk.
  • Leak Prevention: The unit is designed to help prevent fluid leaks, even if the operational handle is inadvertently left open.
  • Continuity of Care: The stopcock is suitable for transfer with the patient post-operatively, which helps minimize set changes and associated disruptions.
Are these stopcocks sterile?

Yes, the B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcocks are sterile.

Are these stopcocks made with natural rubber?

No, the B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcocks are not made with natural rubber.

How many stopcocks are included in a case?

Each case contains 50 B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcocks.

Can these stopcocks be transferred with the patient post-operatively?

Yes, these stopcocks are designed to transfer with the patient post-operatively, eliminating the need for removal and replacement during patient transfer.

Does the ULTRAPORT stopcock prevent leaks?

Yes, the B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcock includes an integrated safety feature designed to manage and prevent fluid leaks, enhancing overall security.

Key aspects of the leak prevention design include:

  • Handle Position Forgiveness: The stopcock is designed to help prevent leaks even if the operational handle is inadvertently left open or improperly positioned.
  • Fluid Integrity: This secure design is essential for maintaining fluid integrity and patient safety in critical care and anesthesia settings.
  • Continuity of Care: The robust design minimizes the risk of fluid disruption, supporting the unit’s ability to transfer securely with the patient post-operatively.
Does this design minimize the frequency of set changes?

Yes, the B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcocks are specifically designed for continuity of care to minimize the frequency of overall set changes.

This is achieved primarily because the unit is engineered to transfer with the patient post-operatively, reducing disruptions.

Additional features that help reduce the need for set replacements include:

  • Advanced Infection Control: The needle-free swabbable valves offer superior protection against microorganisms, reducing the risk of Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSIs) that often necessitate premature set replacement.
  • Integrated Design: The system incorporates a standard stopcock with the swabbable valves, eliminating the need for separate caps and supplementary components.
  • Leak Prevention: The design helps maintain system integrity and prevent fluid leaks, even if the operational handle is inadvertently left open.
Where are these stopcocks manufactured?

The B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcocks are manufactured in the USA.

Do these stopcocks eliminate the need for caps?

Yes, the B. Braun ULTRAPORT Swabbable Port Stopcocks are engineered with an integrated design that completely eliminates the need for separate protective caps.

This functionality is achieved by incorporating advanced needle-free swabbable valves directly into the standard stopcock mechanism, providing significant benefits for patient safety and clinical workflow:

  • Advanced Infection Control: The integrated swabbable valve offers superior protection against microorganism contamination compared to conventional capping methods, actively working to reduce Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infections (CRBSIs).
  • Streamlined Procedures: It simplifies protocols and reduces the need for supplementary components.
  • Leak Prevention: The unit is designed to help prevent fluid leaks, even if the operational handle is inadvertently left open.
  • Patient Continuity: These units can transfer with the patient post-operatively, minimizing overall set changes.
