POCT dispensing tip / needle-free blood dispensing adapter

Description

A single-use, sterile dispensing tip designed to connect to S-Monovette® collection devices to permit hygienic, needle-free dispensing of small volumes of blood at the point-of-care (POCT) into test cartridges, strips or microcuvettes. The adapter provides a controlled, swabbable dispensing surface and a secure connection to S-Monovette® tubes/systems to minimise contamination and spillage during sample transfer.

Bnefits

Enables needle-free, hygienic transfer of capillary/venous blood from S-Monovette® devices to POCT test devices
Reduces risk of sample contamination and spillage during dispensing
Single-use sterile product reduces cross-contamination risk between patients
Designed for simple, quick attachment to S-Monovette® collection devices used in POCT workflows

Indications

Intended for use at the point of care to dispense small volumes of collected blood into POCT devices (e.g., glucose meters, rapid coagulation tests, lateral flow cartridges) where a compatible dispensing tip is required
Use in clinical, emergency, ambulance, bedside and laboratory POCT settings

Composition

Medical-grade plastics (typical materials: polypropylene body, HD-PE components or similar thermoplastics used for single-use medical fittings)
Elastomeric membrane or sealing elements where applicable (material varies by configuration)

Formulation

Sterile, single-use dispensing adapter supplied loose or in small packs; designed to attach to S-Monovette® systems and provide a controlled dispensing orifice for drops or microvolumes

Packaging

Typically supplied in small consumer packs or bulk multipacks depending on distributor (packaging and count vary by reseller). Sterile, single-use devices are usually individually wrapped or supplied in sealed sterile blister/foil packaging as per distributor configuration.

Usage

Use only by trained healthcare personnel for single-patient use.
Attach the dispensing tip to the S-Monovette® collection device per manufacturer instructions ensuring a secure fit.
Aseptically swab the dispensing surface if required by local protocol, then dispense the required volume into the POCT test device as directed by the POCT test IFU.
Dispose of the used tip as clinical waste per local regulations; do not reuse.

Contraindications

Do not use if sterile packaging is damaged or opened prior to use.
Not intended for collection or transfer of intravenous medications or large fluid volumes; use only for dispensing small diagnostic sample volumes as indicated.
Do not reuse — single-use only.

Adverse Effects

Risks related to POCT sample handling (e.g., sample contamination, incorrect dispensing volume leading to invalid test result) if not used per IFU or local POCT procedures.
Device-related adverse events are uncommon; clinicians should follow local incident reporting if device failure (leakage, poor fit) results in clinical impact.

Storage Conditions

Store in original, unopened packaging in a cool, dry place protected from direct sunlight and heat.
Observe manufacturer lot/expiry information on carton for sterility assurance.
