Clean, Clear Connection

Caresite® Needlefree Connector

Caresite® Needlefree Connector 

Caresite® needlefree connector with positive displacement technology is designed to help reduce catheter occlusions, protect healthcare workers from accidental needlestick injuries and offers proven superior disinfection1, helping to achieve the optimum closed system.

Displacement

Needlefree devices can be grouped into two categories; those that permit blood reflux upon detachment of a luer connector and those that don’t.  The non-blood reflux needlefree connectors, those with positive displacement, instead, clear the catheter of blood.  Understanding needlefree fluid displacement types can help you make the most informed choice for ensuring best care for your patient.

Positive Displacement – Designed to Reduce the Risk of Catheter Occlusions

The Caresite® needlefree connector features positive displacement technology which delivers an automatic bolus of 0.03 ml of flush solution upon disconnection of a flush syringe, helping to prevent blood reflux and promote catheter patency.
