Bd Carefusion Chemo-Safety System

Yes, the Bd Carefusion Chemo-Safety System uses SmartSite needle-free technology as a foundational element for secure access.

This technology is incorporated to minimize the risk of needlestick injuries for clinical personnel when handling hazardous chemotherapy agents.

SmartSite access points are featured on various components of the system, including:

• Vial Access Devices (compatible with 13 mm, 20 mm, and 28 mm closures)
• Stand-Alone Valves
• Bag Spikes
• Multi-Port Manifolds and Access Pins

Yes, the Bd Carefusion Chemo-Safety System offers a diverse range of Pathway Volume (PV) options across its configurations. This is essential for ensuring precise dosing and minimizing medication waste when handling hazardous drugs.

The Pathway Volume (PV)—the amount of fluid required to prime the component—ranges from a low of 0.07 ml up to 1.5 ml, depending on the specific device selected:

• Smallest PVs (0.07 ml, 0.11 ml): Found in stand-alone needle-free valves and access pins.
• Mid-range PVs (0.09 ml, 0.15 ml, 0.51 ml, 0.9 ml): Used for components like vial access devices and bag spikes.
• Largest PV (1.5 ml): Associated with multi-port components, such as the manifold configuration.

Yes, the BD Carefusion Chemo-Safety System components are packaged in bulk case quantities to support efficient clinical use.The available case quantities are:* 100 units per case (100/cs): This applies to most individual components, such as the SmartSite Needle-Free Valves, Access Pins, Vial Access Devices, and Bag Spikes.* 50 units per case (50/cs): This is typically used for more complex assemblies, such as the Manifold configurations.

Yes, the Bd Carefusion Chemo-Safety System is designed around BD’s proprietary SmartSite technology, which is a crucial safety feature for chemotherapy applications.

SmartSite utilizes a needle-free valve or access pin mechanism. This design significantly enhances safety by minimizing the risk of needlestick injuries while handling hazardous agents.

SmartSite technology is integrated into various system components, including:

• SmartSite Needle-Free Valves
• SmartSite Access Pins
• SmartSite Bag Spikes
• Chemo-Safety Universal Vented Vial Access Devices

The BD Carefusion Chemo-Safety System offers a diverse range of needle-free components designed specifically for the safe handling and administration of chemotherapy agents, utilizing the SmartSite Needle-Free Valve technology.

Key specialized configurations include:

• Vial Access Devices: Options like the Universal Vented Vial Access Device are available. This device is compatible with 13 mm, 20 mm, and 28 mm vial closures and includes a specialized 0.2 Micron Hydrophobic Air-Venting Filter.
• Bag Spikes: Specialized SmartSite Bag Spikes are offered. Note that one variant (the 5” spike with Check Valve) is specifically designated as Not Made with DEHP (Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate).
• Manifolds and Valves: The system includes multi-port options (e.g., Manifold with 1-Way Valves) and standalone components like the SmartSite Needle-Free Valve and Access Pin for flexible setup integration.

Yes, the Bd Carefusion Chemo-Safety System includes configurations that are designed without certain plasticizers.

At least one variant is confirmed to be Not Made with DEHP.

This DEHP-free material specification is specifically noted for certain components, such as a variant of the SmartSite Bag Spike with Check Valve. This helps ensure compliance with rigorous material safety protocols required for handling hazardous drugs.

Yes, the Chemo-Safety Universal Vented Vial Access Device is designed for wide compatibility, making it versatile for chemotherapy applications. It is compatible with the following common vial closure sizes:

• 13 mm
• 20 mm
• 28 mm

Yes, the BD Carefusion Chemo-Safety System is specifically designed to ensure safe and closed handling of hazardous drugs, minimizing exposure during chemotherapy drug handling.

Yes, configurations like the Chemo-Safety Universal Vented Vial Access Device utilize a specialized 0.2 Micron Hydrophobic Air-Venting Filter. This feature is critical for maintaining safety and preventing environmental contamination during drug preparation and administration.

The product information indicates that the Country of Origin is US for at least one specific variant within the Chemo-Safety System line. Given the system’s specialized nature, manufacturing details may vary by individual component configuration.
