EXTENTION SETS

产品详情

An extension set, often referred to as an infusion set or IV extension set, is a medical device used in healthcare settings to extend the length of intravenous (IV) tubing. These sets play a crucial role in facilitating the administration of fluids, medications, or blood products from an infusion source (such as an IV bag or pump) to the patient's vascular system. Extension sets are designed to enhance flexibility, convenience, and the overall efficiency of intravenous therapy. Here are some key aspects of extension sets. Extension sets typically consist of a length of flexible tubing made of materials compatible with medical use, such as PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or similar materials. The tubing can vary in length, allowing healthcare providers to customize the distance between the infusion source and the patient. Extension sets feature connectors at each end, which allow them to be easily connected to the IV catheter or cannula on one end and the infusion source on the other. These connectors are designed to provide a secure and leak-free connection.The connectors on extension sets often use a Luer lock or Luer slip mechanism. Luer lock connectors have a threaded design that screws into place, providing a more secure connection, while Luer slip connectors are pushed and twisted to attach. Some extension sets come equipped with needle-free connectors to reduce the risk of needlestick injuries and contamination. These connectors allow for the administration of medications or the withdrawal of blood without using a needle. Certain extension sets may include flow regulators or clamps that enable healthcare providers to control the rate of fluid flow through the tubing. This is particularly important when precise control of infusion rates is required. Extension sets may have multiple ports, allowing for the simultaneous administration of different medications or fluids without the need for additional tubing. There are specialty extension sets designed for specific purposes, such as extension sets with filters to remove particulate matter from infusions or extension sets with pre-filled saline flush syringes for maintaining catheter patency. Extension sets play a crucial role in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, and home care, where intravenous therapy is administered. They provide healthcare professionals with the flexibility to customize and optimize the delivery of fluids and medications based on the specific needs of each patient. Proper usage and maintenance of extension sets are essential to ensure the safety and effectiveness of intravenous therapy.
