Smiths Medical Launches New Gravity Administration Set
CARLSBAD, Calif., Jan. 10-- Smiths Medical has announced the launch of a new product, a 10-drop gravity anesthesia administration set. An addition to its top of the line portfolio of safety products, this new set has been designed for use primarily in Anesthesia and OR. Safe and convenient, the 10-Drop Gravity Anesthesia Administration Set is the newest product of a 10-, 20-, and 60-drop configuration line of gravity administration sets.
The 10-Drop Gravity Anesthesia Administration Set incorporates two one-way valves and a four-way Hi-Flo(TM) stopcock for concurrent delivery of compatible fluids and drugs. This product also features two SmartSiteŽ needle-free valves for enhanced patient and clinician safety. These components help minimize setup time required to prepare and administer IV infusions. Incorporating the one-way valves, four-way stopcock, and needle-free valves, this set eliminates clinician need to attach add-on devices or carry additional inventory of extension sets, components, or blunt cannulas.
The SmartSiteŽ Needle-Free Valve is one of the needle-free systems most widely used in the world. The patented SmartSiteŽ valve is a swabable, capless, 2-way valve for injection, gravity, pump flow or aspiration of fluids. Easy to use, this needle-free valve is lipid resistant, latex-free, and MRI compatible.
The Hi-Flo(TM) stopcocks have a 9-French internal diameter, which provides higher flow rates for rapid infusions when needed. Hi-Flo(TM) stopcocks have large handles that are easy to grip and smooth to turn. They are also lipid resistant, non-PVC and of non-DHP formulation.
