IV solution administration set
Description
The Gravity Solution Administration Set (Single) is a sterile, single-use IV solution administration set branded by 3S Healthcare and manufactured by Baxter Healthcare. It is designed for gravity or pump-assisted infusion of IV fluids and solutions. The set includes a vented/non-vented drip chamber with a 15 µm disc filter, an adjustable roller clamp to control flow rate, a needle Y-site for secondary access, and a click/rotary luer connector with Safeprime cap for secure connection to IV cannulas or extension sets. Supplied as an individually wrapped disposable giving set for use in clinical and emergency care environments.
Bnefits
Provides a complete sterile giving set for gravity solution administration.
15 µm in-line filter helps reduce particulate contamination in the infused solution.
Roller clamp enables manual adjustment of infusion flow rate.
Needle Y-site allows convenient access for secondary injections or piggyback infusions.
Click/rotary luer connector with Safeprime cap offers secure, leak-resistant connection and priming.
Vented / non-vented drip chamber design allows use with a range of fluid containers as appropriate.
Single-use, individually packed device to support infection control and patient safety.
Indications
Administration of intravenous fluids and solutions by gravity or compatible infusion pump.
Use in hospitals, clinics, emergency medical services and other healthcare settings requiring solution administration.
Situations where a standard adult IV giving set with 15 µm filter and Y-site is appropriate.
Composition
IV tubing set compatible with gravity or pump-assisted infusion (approx. standard adult giving set length).
Synthetic latex flashball / injection site for priming and handling (per Baxter/3S Healthcare configuration).
Needle Y-site for secondary line or injection access.
Adjustable roller clamp for manual flow control.
Rotating/click luer lock connector with Safeprime cap at patient end.
Tubing and components manufactured from medical-grade plastics and elastomers appropriate for IV administration.

Usage
Intended for use by trained healthcare professionals only.
Inspect packaging before use; do not use if the sterile package is damaged or opened.
Remove the set from the packaging using aseptic technique.
Close the roller clamp before connecting to the fluid container.
Spike the IV fluid container according to local protocol, selecting vented or non-vented use as appropriate for the container type.
Prime the administration set fully, ensuring the 15 µm filter and downstream tubing are filled with fluid with no air bubbles.
Connect the click/rotary luer lock connector securely to the patient’s IV cannula or extension set.
Open the roller clamp and adjust to achieve the prescribed flow rate, monitoring drip rate and patient response.
Use the needle Y-site only with suitable sterile devices and in accordance with local policies.
Dispose of the entire set safely as clinical waste after a single use; do not re-use or re-sterilise.
Contraindications
Do not use if the sterile packaging is damaged, opened or past the expiry date.
Do not use in patients with known hypersensitivity to any material in the set (e.g. synthetic latex components) if applicable.
Not suitable for use with fluids or medications that are incompatible with the materials of the tubing or components.
Not for re-use or re-sterilisation; re-use may lead to infection, device failure or patient harm.
Adverse Effects
Potential risk of infection or sepsis if aseptic technique is not followed or if the set is reused.
Risk of air embolism if the set is not properly primed and air is allowed to enter the line.
Potential local or systemic reactions in patients sensitive to any material components (e.g. synthetic latex) if present.
Mechanical complications such as infiltration, extravasation or incorrect infusion rate if used improperly.
Storage Conditions
