Description
The Intrafix® SafeSet Infusion Set 180 cm is a high-quality IV administration set designed for the safe and precise delivery of intravenous fluids and medications. Featuring B. Braun’s Intrafix® SafeSet technology, it incorporates an advanced drip chamber for accurate drop-by-drop dosing, an integrated air vent with hydrophobic membrane (AirStop) to help prevent air infusion, and a PrimeStop protective cap to assist closed, drip-free priming. The 180 cm transparent tubing provides flexibility and reach in a wide range of clinical and aesthetic practice settings. The set is compatible with standard IV fluid containers and infusion solutions and is suitable for gravity infusions and, in pressure-rated variants, for use with non-dedicated infusion pumps. It is intended for single use by trained healthcare professionals in accordance with local protocols.
Bnefits
Precision IV infusion set designed for accurate fluid and medication administration
Advanced drip chamber technology for clear visualisation of drop formation and reliable flow control
Integrated air vent with hydrophobic AirStop filter membrane to help prevent air from entering the infusion line
PrimeStop protective cap with hydrophobic membrane to support closed-system priming and reduce fluid leakage
180 cm soft, transparent tubing for flexible positioning and ease of use at the bedside or treatment chair
Roller clamp for fine and adjustable flow-rate control
Luer-lock patient connector for secure connection to IV access devices
Back-check valve available in many SafeSet configurations to reduce risk of backflow of blood or solution
DEHP-free tubing and latex-free materials to reduce risk of sensitisation
Sterile, single-use device supporting good infection-control practice
Indications
Intravenous administration of fluids, electrolytes and compatible medications via gravity infusion
IV infusion therapy in hospital, clinic, day surgery and aesthetic practice settings
Use in adult, paediatric and (where specified by the manufacturer) neonatal patients requiring IV therapy
Situations where an air-vented IV administration set with safety features is required
Tubing: medical-grade PVC or PUR (depending on variant), DEHP-free
Roller clamp: colour-coded polymer for flow regulation and spike parking
Spike: sharp, easy-to-insert plastic spike with separate fluid inlet and air outlet
Particle filter: approximately 15 µm filter in the drip chamber
Patient connector: luer-lock fitting (with optional back-check valve, depending on set configuration)
Latex-free; not manufactured with natural rubber latex
Formulation
Single-use sterile IV administration set
180 cm transparent fluid line (standard lumen approximately 3 x 4.1 mm)
Gravity infusion set (many versions also pressure-rated up to ~2 bar for use with compatible infusion pumps)
Air-vented drip chamber with microorganism-tight filter and AirStop safety feature
PrimeStop end cap with hydrophobic, bacteria-tight membrane to limit leakage and contamination risk
Luer-lock patient connector for secure attachment to IV cannula or extension set
Packaging
Individually sterile blister-packed IV administration set
Typical carton configuration: multiple single-use sets per box (exact count dependent on supplier, often 10 or 25)
Labelling includes product name, length (180 cm), lot number and expiry date
Usage
Use only by trained healthcare professionals in accordance with local clinical protocols.
Check the packaging before use; do not use if the sterile barrier is damaged or if the expiry date has passed.
Open the sterile pack and maintain aseptic technique throughout the setup.
Ensure the roller clamp is in the closed position and the air vent cap is initially closed, if applicable.
Insert (spike) the IV set into the compatible fluid container or bag using a twisting motion while maintaining sterility.
Invert the container and gently squeeze the drip chamber until it is filled to the recommended mark or ring.
Open the roller clamp to allow fluid to run through the tubing and PrimeStop cap, fully priming the line and expelling air; then close the clamp.
Connect the luer-lock patient end to the IV cannula or access device, ensuring a secure connection.
Open the roller clamp and adjust the flow rate to the prescribed level using the drip chamber and clamp.
Monitor the patient, infusion site and drip rate regularly during therapy. Replace the set according to hospital or clinic policy and manufacturer recommendations, or sooner if contamination, blockage or damage is suspected.
After use, close the roller clamp, disconnect from the patient, and dispose of the entire set as clinical waste in accordance with local regulations. Do not re-use or re-sterilise.
Contraindications
Do not use if the packaging is damaged, opened or past the expiry date.
Not to be used for blood or blood products unless explicitly indicated by the manufacturer for that specific Intrafix® SafeSet variant.
Not suitable for use with lipid emulsions, cytotoxic drugs or other special solutions unless confirmed compatible with the specific set type.
Do not use in patients for whom IV therapy is contraindicated according to clinical assessment.
Do not reuse or re-sterilise; single-use device only.
Adverse Effects
The device itself does not have pharmacological adverse effects, but incorrect setup, priming, use or monitoring may contribute to infusion-related complications such as air embolism, infection or extravasation.
Improper handling or failure to follow aseptic technique can increase the risk of catheter-related bloodstream infection.
If any unexpected reaction or complication occurs, stop the infusion and follow local emergency and clinical protocols.
Storage Conditions
Store in a clean, dry place at room temperature.
Protect from direct sunlight, excessive heat and moisture.
Keep in original packaging until immediately before use to maintain sterility.
Do not freeze or expose to conditions that could damage plastic components.
Keep out of reach of children and unauthorised personnel.
Duration
Duration of use is determined by the prescribed IV therapy and local guidelines; IV administration sets are typically changed according to national and institutional policies (e.g. every 24 hours for certain infusions or when clinically indicated).
Onset
Onset of action depends on the infused fluid or medication; the set itself provides immediate flow once fully primed and the clamp is opened.
