BD PosiFlush™ Prefilled Saline Syringe complies with major PICC manufacturer recommendations for flushing with a 10-mL syringe. It also improves clinician efficiency and workflow by eliminating the steps and time involved in the manual preparation of saline syringes.
Impact to solution contamination
Designed to prevent solution from entering a nonsterile area of the syringe, the product helps reduce the risk of solution contamination. The saline prefilled flush products feature a sterile fluid pathway.
Impact to catheter dwell time
A failed IV catheter means pain, dissatisfaction, prolongation of care and venous depletion, compounded by the need to treat minor and severe IV catheter failure-related sequelae.1
Reduced medication errors
The syringe supports efforts to reduce the risk of medication errors by meeting Joint Commission and ISMP medication labeling guidelines.
