Description

The PHASEAL Infusion Set by BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) is an integral part of the BD PhaSeal closed system drug transfer device (CSTD). This advanced system is meticulously designed to safeguard healthcare professionals and patients from exposure to hazardous drugs during preparation, transport, and intravenous (IV) administration.

Key Features

• Airtight and Leakproof Design: Utilizes double membrane-to-membrane technology to ensure a secure, closed environment. This prevents the ingress of environmental contaminants and the escape of hazardous drug particles, aerosols, and vapors.

• Infusion Adapter: Equipped with a built-in BD PhaSeal connector for seamless connection with non-vented IV sets.

• Secondary Sets: Available with or without a drip chamber, each featuring a BD PhaSeal connector to maintain a closed system.

• Y-site Connector: Includes extension tubing with a BD PhaSeal connector for versatile integration.

• Closed Expansion Chamber: Manages pressure while containing aerosols, particles, and vapors.

• Inline Filter: The Infusion Set C50 includes a 15 µm filter for enhanced safety.

Compatibility and Use

• Versatile Connections: Compatible with standard hazardous drug vials, IV connections, and tubing. Suitable for use with syringe pumps, CLAVE needle-free valves, and Luer lock connections.

• Safe Disposal: Designed for single use, with components to be disposed of as chemotherapy waste without disassembly.

Material Specifications
