IV solution administration set / giving set

Description

The IV Baxter Giving Set 240cm (40) is a sterile, single-use Continu-Flo solution administration set designed for intravenous infusions. It features approximately 240 cm of tubing, a non-return (backcheck) valve to help prevent backflow, and two Y-port injection sites positioned high and low on the line for convenient medication boluses or additive injections. A high-quality V-track flow controller enables accurate manual regulation of infusion rates. Each individual set is supplied sterile in a peel-open pack and is intended for use by trained healthcare professionals, commonly in hospital, clinic and aesthetic/IV vitamin therapy settings.

Bnefits

  • Provides a dedicated IV solution administration line for controlled infusion of fluids, vitamins and medications.
  • Continu-Flo design with backcheck (non-return) valve helps prevent backflow from secondary containers or the patient line.
  • Two Y-port injection sites (high and low) allow intermittent drug or vitamin injections without disconnecting the primary line.
  • Approximate 240 cm tubing length offers flexibility and ease of positioning of the infusion pump or IV pole relative to the patient.
  • High-quality V-track controller allows manual adjustment of flow rate for gravity infusions.
  • Single-use, sterile fluid path reduces risk of cross-contamination between patients.
  • Designed to be compatible with Baxter Continu-Flo systems and commonly used infusion pumps and IV poles.
  • Supplied as a box of 40, making it suitable for clinical and aesthetic practice stock management.

Indications

  • Intravenous administration of crystalloids, colloids and compatible solutions.
  • Infusion of IV vitamins, minerals and nutritional solutions in aesthetic, wellness and medical settings when prescribed by a healthcare professional.
  • Administration of compatible IV medications via primary infusion or through the integrated injection sites.
  • Situations where a long (approximately 240 cm) IV giving set is required to allow flexibility of equipment positioning relative to the patient.

Composition

  • Medical-grade flexible tubing (PVC with DEHP, typical of Baxter Continu-Flo sets).
  • Non-vented spike for connection to IV solution containers (bottles or bags).
  • Drip chamber for visual monitoring of flow and drop rate.
  • Integrated backcheck (non-return) valve in the fluid path.
  • Two Y-port injection sites (typically Clearlink/Interlink or equivalent needle-free/needle-accessible ports) positioned high and low on the line.
  • V-track (roller-type) flow controller for manual regulation of infusion rate.
  • Male Luer lock adapter at the patient end for secure connection to IV cannula or extension set.
  • Latex-free fluid path components (typical of modern Baxter Continu-Flo sets).

Formulation

  • Sterile, single-use IV solution administration set (Continu-Flo technology) with approximately 240 cm tubing.
  • Non-vented spike, drip chamber, backcheck valve, two Y-port injection sites (high and low), V-track controller and male Luer lock adapter.
  • DEHP-containing PVC tubing with latex-free fluid path; non-pyrogenic and sterilised (e.g. by radiation or ethylene oxide) as per Baxter Continu-Flo product family.

Packaging

  • Each giving set is individually sterile-packed in a sealed medical-grade pouch.
  • Commercial pack: box containing 40 individually packed IV Baxter Giving Sets (240 cm).
  • Labeling typically includes product name, length, brand (Baxter), lot number, expiry date and sterilisation/single-use symbols.

Usage

  • For use only by trained healthcare professionals in accordance with local protocols and the instructions-for-use supplied by Baxter.
  • Verify integrity of the sterile package and expiry date before use; do not use if the pouch is opened, torn or damaged.
  • Close the V-track (flow) controller before spiking the solution container.
  • Remove protective cap and insert the spike aseptically into the IV fluid container (bag or bottle), ensuring a secure fit.
  • Squeeze and partially fill the drip chamber to the recommended level to allow visual monitoring of drops.
  • Prime the line by slowly opening the V-track controller until all air is expelled and the tubing is completely filled with fluid, then close the controller.
  • Connect the male Luer lock adapter at the distal end of the set to the patient’s IV cannula or extension set, ensuring a secure Luer-lock connection.
  • Adjust the V-track controller to achieve the prescribed infusion rate for gravity infusions or connect to a compatible infusion pump if being used under pump control.
  • Use the Y-port injection sites (high or low) as indicated to administer compatible medications or vitamins, following aseptic technique and institutional protocol.
  • Do not reuse; discard the entire giving set after completion of the prescribed infusion, following local clinical waste regulations.

Contraindications

  • Do not use if the sterile package is opened, damaged or past its expiry date.
  • Not to be reused or resterilised; reuse may increase the risk of infection and device malfunction.
  • Do not use for solutions or medications that are contraindicated for administration via PVC/DEHP-containing tubing or via Continu-Flo sets.
  • Do not use if visible damage, kinks or occlusions are present in the tubing, connectors, drip chamber or injection sites.
  • Use only with compatible solutions, containers and infusion pumps as per Baxter and institutional guidelines.

Adverse Effects

  • As with any IV administration set, improper use may contribute to complications such as infection, phlebitis, infiltration, air embolism or fluid overload.
  • Incorrect priming or failure to remove air from the line may result in air entering the patient’s circulation.
  • Use with incompatible solutions or medications may lead to precipitation, tubing damage or reduced drug efficacy.
  • Re-use or use of a compromised sterile pack may increase risk of cross-contamination or infection.

Storage Conditions

  • Store in a clean, dry environment at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
  • Keep in original packaging until immediately before use to maintain sterility.
  • Do not use after the expiry date printed on the pack.
  • Avoid crushing, bending or storing under heavy objects that may deform the tubing or components.

Duration

The giving set itself is used for the duration of a single IV infusion episode and must be discarded after use; duration of treatment (minutes to hours) is determined by the prescribed IV therapy protocol, not by the set.

Onset

Not directly applicable to the device; onset and clinical effect depend on the medication or fluid being infused rather than the giving set itself.
